| Obverse description | Draped bust of Maximilian Henry of Bavaria facing right, wearing a episcopal biretta (cap), with flowing curled hair visible beneath. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine detailing on the clerical vestments. The circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, incorporating the mint date, with the perron of Liège serving as the mintmark positioned at the top of the legend. The overall style is characteristic of 17th-century Southern Netherlandish minting, with a broad, flat field framing the portrait. |
