| Obverse description | Crowned and draped bust of Sigismund III Vasa facing right, wearing a ruffled collar and an ornate royal crown with cross finial; the effigy is rendered in fine relief characteristic of late 16th-century hammered coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the portrait, with the Latin royal legend distributed around the periphery. The king is depicted with a short beard and moustache, and the drapery of the mantle is visible at the truncation. |
