| Obverse description | Central field features the elaborate interlaced royal cipher 'GR' (Georgius Rex) rendered in ornate script, surmounted by a royal crown. The numeral 'IV' appears below the monogram in the lower field, denoting George IV as the fourth monarch of that name. The design is unlettered, with the crowned monogram occupying the full field in a bold and decorative manner characteristic of early nineteenth-century German coinage. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination in three horizontal lines across the central field: the fraction '1/4' at the top, followed by 'STÜBER' in bold capital letters, then 'OST- FRIESISCH' on two lines denoting the regional attribution to East Frisia, and the mint year below. The entire legend is contained within the plain field without any surrounding border legend, presenting a straightforward typographic design typical of utilitarian copper coinage of the period. |
