The crown surmounting the shield is rendered in fine detail with elaborate scrollwork. The legend 'NEDERL. INDIE.' curves along the upper periphery, while the date appears in the exergue at the bottom. A mint mark may appear to the lower right of the date. |

| Reverse description | A stylized solar disk with seven radiating rays dominates the center of the field, evoking the traditional Indonesian sun motif. Within the disk, the denomination is inscribed in two lines in Malay script (Jawi, Arabic-based), while the spaces between the rays bear the denomination in Javanese script (Hanacaraka). The design is bold and symmetrical, reflecting the dual cultural and linguistic heritage of the colonial territory. The field surrounding the solar motif is plain, with no additional legend or border inscription. |
