| Obverse description | Armored right-facing bust of Sigismund III Vasa occupying the central field, the king depicted in elaborate plate armor with a prominent ruff collar and an ornate jeweled chain of office draped across the chest. A feathered plume or wing motif is visible behind the shoulder, rendered in fine relief consistent with early 17th-century Polish medallic art. The circumferential Latin legend reads SIGISMVNDVS III D... REX POL... around the bust, naming the king and his royal titles. The effigy is executed in a bold, high-relief style characteristic of the Kraków mint's goldsmith workshop of the period. |
