| Obverse description | The obverse features a finely detailed high-relief scene depicting the Baptism of Christ, showing Jesus standing in the River Jordan with arms crossed while John the Baptist places a hand upon his head; above them, a dove with outstretched wings and rays of light descends from the heavens. John the Baptist is shown holding a staff and wearing animal skins, with a landscape of clouds and distant buildings in the background. The legend arcs around the upper portion of the field within a raised border. |
