| Obverse description | Laureate and armored bust of Emperor Matthias II facing right, wearing an elaborately embossed cuirass with decorative shoulder armor and a large ruffled lace collar typical of early 17th-century Habsburg portraiture. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine detail to the facial features and regalia. The surrounding legend reads MATTHIAS· D·G·RO·IM·S·AVG·GER·HVN· BOH·REX, distributed around the full circumference within a beaded border, identifying the ruler as Holy Roman Emperor, King of Germany, Hungary, and Bohemia. |
