| Obverse description | The field bears a deeply struck high-relief scene depicting the Adoration of the Magi: the Virgin Mary is seated at left holding the infant Jesus with a radiant nimbus, attended by Joseph standing behind, while three Wise Men present their gifts in the foreground, one kneeling in adoration. A radiating star of Bethlehem shines from the upper right, and a stable canopy frames the composition. The curved legend arcs along the upper border. |
