| Obverse description | Full-length facing figure of St. John the Baptist standing in the field, holding the Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) in his arms, with a small shield positioned between his feet. The date appears at the end of a circular Latin legend surrounding the central figure. The overall style is characteristic of late medieval German hammered gold coinage. |
