Obverse description The upper field depicts a dense forest scene with a large cedar tree struck by a lightning bolt from stormy clouds above. The lower field shows a walled town on the right and a standing figure in the centre foreground, separated from the upper scene by a horizontal line. A circular Latin legend runs along the rim, with a five-line inscription and date in the exergue.
