| Obverse description | Central field displays a displayed eagle with spread wings, facing forward, rendered in the late medieval Gothic style characteristic of Silesian municipal coinage. The eagle, serving as the heraldic emblem of Kosel, is depicted with detailed feathering on the wings and tail. The central device is enclosed within a plain inner circle. Surrounding the inner circle, the legend reads MONETA ✿ D ✿ KOSEL ✿ in uncial Latin characters, separated by floral rosette stops. The overall style reflects the crude but expressive hammered craftsmanship typical of 15th-century Silesian heller coinage. |
