| Obverse description | Spread imperial double-headed eagle displayed in the central field, with both heads facing outward and wings fully extended, struck in the Gothic hammered style characteristic of late 15th-century Austrian coinage. The eagle's chest and wings display detailed feathering rendered in relief. A circular Gothic legend in uncial Latin script surrounds the eagle, reading FRIEDER ... ROMANORVM IMPER, referencing Emperor Frederick III as Holy Roman Emperor. The coin exhibits the irregular flan shape typical of hand-hammered silver coinage of the period. |
