| Obverse description | Crowned and draped bust of King Michael Korybut Wiśniowiecki facing right, wearing an ornate crown with pearled band and elaborate curled wig, the royal mantle richly engraved with decorative detail. A small crowned shield bearing the Wiśniowiecki family arms is visible on the shoulder. The effigy is set within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend running along the outer field. The portrait is rendered in the high-relief Baroque style characteristic of Gdańsk mint workmanship of the period. |
