| Obverse description | The obverse displays the crowned civic arms of Lüneburg, consisting of a quartered shield bearing towers and a lion passant, set within elaborate baroque acanthus scrollwork. A crowned helmet surmounts the shield, topped by a tall plume or crest finial. A partial legend arcs around the upper field, reading DA PAC DOM IN DIE NOST, separated by decorative stops. The entire design is framed by an inner beaded border. The overall execution is characteristic of the high baroque engraving style prevalent in early eighteenth-century German municipal coinage. |
