Obverse description A horse leaping to the left occupies the central field, rendered in the characteristic style of Brunswick coinage. The animal is depicted in full profile with dynamic posture, its legs extended in mid-leap. A circular Latin legend surrounds the device, incorporating the abbreviated titles and names of the co-ruling dukes Rudolph August and Anthony Ulrich. The date 1694 appears in the lower portion of the field beneath the horse.

Reverse description The central device consists of an imperial orb surmounted by a cross pattée, within which the denomination numeral 24 is inscribed, denoting the coin's value as a 1/24 Thaler. The mintmaster's initials HC and H are placed to either side of the orb, flanking the cross. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery of the field, referencing the Brunswick-Lüneburg land coinage authority. The overall composition is typical of late 17th-century German imperial orb coinage.
