| Obverse description | Within a finely beaded inner circle, a shield bearing three crosses is centrally displayed, flanked on either side by the initials I·I (for Johann Jakob), each letter accompanied by three small crescents. The composition is rendered in a bold, late-medieval hammered style with strong relief. The design elements are symmetrically arranged within the circular field, conveying both the lordly authority and the religious devotion characteristic of Renaissance Italian coinage. |
