| Obverse description | A detailed mining landscape scene enclosed within a beaded inner circle. In the upper left of the field, radiant sunbeams emanate diagonally downward over a hillside bearing a pithead winding tower and mine shaft structures at right. Vegetation and terrain details fill the lower field, with a decorative scrollwork cartouche at the base. The circumferential legend reads GOTT SEGNE DAS BERGWERCK (God bless the mining works) in raised Latin lettering between the inner circle and a finely denticulated outer border. |

| Reverse description | The denomination 1/4 STUBER is displayed in large raised numerals and text within an ornate Baroque cartouche occupying the central field, the cartouche surmounted by an elaborate foliate and scroll design with stylized floral finials. The date 1750 appears in the lower field beneath the cartouche. The peripheral legend BERG * MÜNTZ (Berg Mint) is inscribed in Latin characters, reading around the coin between the cartouche and the denticulated rim, with small star stops separating the legend elements. |
