| Obverse description | Central field displays the Hungarian royal arms — a quartered shield combining the Árpád stripes and the apostolic double cross on a mount — surmounted by the Hungarian crown, all within a beaded inner circle. The date appears prominently above the shield within the central field. The surrounding peripheral legend, separated by a beaded border, reads the abbreviated royal titulature of Maximilian II in Latin capitals, with pellet stops between abbreviations. The coin is struck on a small, irregularly shaped flan typical of hammered billon deniers of this period, resulting in some legend loss at the margins. |
