| Obverse description | Crowned half-length effigy of Emperor Charles V facing right, depicted in imperial regalia with a draped mantle, holding a cross-topped orb in his left hand and a scepter in his right. The imperial crown surmounts the bust prominently. A circular Latin legend surrounds the design within the coin's border, identifying the ruler as Holy Roman Emperor. The strike is characteristic of early sixteenth-century hammered billon coinage, with some irregularity in the flan. |
