Obverse description Crowned and armored effigy of Saint Ludger facing right, depicted as a bishop or patron saint, holding a scepter over the right shoulder with the hilt of a sword visible to the right. The bust is rendered within a beaded inner circle, with the figure presented in a commanding, regal posture characteristic of late 16th-century Germanic coinage. The circumferential legend in Latin reads SANCTVS LVDERVS PATRONVS NOSTER, identifying the subject as the patron saint Liudger of East Frisia. Fine engraving details are visible in the armor and crown, reflecting the skilled craftsmanship of the period.
