| Obverse description | Full-length frontal figure of a crowned saint, likely Saint John the Baptist, standing erect in the field, robed in flowing drapery and holding a long sceptre or staff in the right hand and a globus cruciger or orb in the left. The figure is rendered in the Gothic hammered style characteristic of late medieval Rhenish-influenced goldgulden coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central device, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery reading IOhS DEI GR REX DACIE. |
