| Obverse description | Stylized diademed bust facing right in a highly schematic, degenerate late antique style typical of Lombard coinage. The effigy is rendered in a crude, abstracted manner with minimal facial detail, reflecting the artistic conventions of seventh-century Lombard silver issues. The field surrounding the bust is plain and unadorned. |

| Reverse description | Royal monogram of King Perctarit, composed of interlaced letters in a cruciform arrangement, accompanied by a distinctive arrangement of nine dots: three dots to the left of the monogram, three dots running down the centre, one dot above, and two dots to the right. The dot arrangement serves as a typological identifier distinguishing this emission within the Perctarit series. The field is otherwise plain. |
