| Obverse description | Central shield of arms bearing a crowned device, surmounted by a bishop's mitre, with a crossed sword and crozier displayed behind the escutcheon. The heraldic composition is rendered in a baroque style characteristic of early eighteenth-century ecclesiastical coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device within the field. The abbreviation for the issuing bishop, Franz Joseph Supersaxo, appears in the obverse inscription. |
