| Obverse description | Facing crowned royal bust of King Louis I, depicted in a schematic, archaic style typical of mid-14th century Hungarian hammered coinage. The king's crown is rendered with prominent points, and flanking letters — likely mint or privy marks — appear to either side of the bust in the field. The portrait is bold and frontal, with stylized facial features and drapery suggested below the bust. The coin's irregular flan and hammered technique result in a slightly off-center strike with weak areas at the periphery. |
