Obverse description Reproduction of the majesty seal of Emperor Frederick III of Habsburg, depicting the enthroned emperor in full coronation regalia — crown, sceptre, and orb — seated beneath a Gothic triple canopy. Flanking the throne are heraldic shields representing the territories of the Holy Roman Empire and the Habsburg hereditary lands, including Austria, Styria, Carinthia, Tyrol, Carniola, and others. A circular Gothic Latin legend surrounds the entire composition, with additional inscriptions in the lower exergue recording the emperor's birth date.
