| Obverse description | The obverse presents the city arms of Regensburg set within an ornate four-lobed cartouche, featuring two crossed keys above two chequered shields arranged in saltire — the traditional heraldic emblem of the city. The monogram 'R' appears prominently at the center where the crossed keys intersect, with smaller letters visible at the upper and lower points of the cartouche. The entire design is framed by the square klippe flan, its border decorated with a continuous beaded or milled edge, with scrollwork embellishments filling the corners of the square field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the Habsburg tradition, with both heads crowned and the wings spread, bearing an escutcheon on its breast charged with the imperial arms. The eagle holds the imperial sword in its right talon and the imperial orb in its left, symbolizing the authority of the Holy Roman Emperor. The composition is rendered in high relief within the square klippe format, with the beaded border framing the imperial device. |
