Obverse description	Satirical relief depicting Hitler, armed with a pistol and bearing a reversed swastika on his left arm, aggressively confronting and pushing aside a well-dressed figure representing Bavarian State Commissioner von Kahr on a podium; a seated Munich citizen drinking beer appears in the lower foreground. The exergue bears the legend 'HITTLER PUTSCH' on a placard, flanked by the date '8. NOV. 1923', while the rim carries the inscription 'NATIONAL GEN NATIONAL'.

A dancing figure between the groups gestures toward both sides. A placard in the lower field bears the legend '9.11.23 / LETZTE VORSTELLUNG / AUF NACH BERLIN'.
