Descripción del anverso A armed Germanic warrior with the symbol of the bundle of rods in his arms at the basis of the German Confederation, the wars of liberation from 1813/15 against Napoleonic France. At that time, the German states, led by Prussia and Austria, in alliance with Russia and Great Britain had driven the French emperor away from German soil and forced them to abdicate in two campaigns in France. The German consequently stands triumphantly on arms and field signs with the imperial eagle of Napoleon
