| Obverse description | Bare bust of Emperor Joseph II facing right, occupying the central field. A continuous Latin legend encircles the effigy, reading the abbreviated full imperial titulature: Iosephus II, by the Grace of God, Emperor of the Romans, Ever Augustus, King of Germany, Hungary, and Bohemia, Archduke of Austria. The portrait is rendered in a restrained neoclassical style typical of late 18th-century Habsburg coinage. |

| Reverse description | The denomination and date are displayed in four lines across the central field: the fractional value 1/4 at the top, followed by KREUTZER, the year of issue, and the mint mark below. The reverse is entirely typographic, with no figurative elements, and is enclosed within a milled border. The mint mark identifies the place of striking among the several Habsburg mints active during Joseph II's reign. |
