| Obverse description | A crowned bear, the heraldic emblem of Anhalt-Bernburg, is depicted in left-facing profile, walking atop a decorative wall with an arched gateway visible at its base. The animal wears a crown upon its head and is rendered in high relief with considerable naturalistic detail. The legend PERRUMPENDUM (meaning 'must be broken through') arcs across the upper field in Latin characters, serving as the dynastic motto. The overall composition is bold and emblematic, characteristic of early eighteenth-century German princely coinage. |
