| Obverse description | A central nude heroic male figure in high relief wields a large shield as a weapon, his sword lying on the ground below him. A winged or draped female figure hovers at the top of the field, gesturing forward as a divine guide. Groups of armed enemy figures press in from both sides of the composition, representing Germany's adversaries to the west and east. The engraver's signature 'F. Schenkel' appears in the lower field. |
