| Obverse description | Central field displays three lines of Khmer inscription denoting the denomination, surmounted by a decorative finial or royal symbol at the top. The inscription is enclosed within a wreath composed of leafy branches tied at the base with a stylized lotus flower, forming an elegant cartouche. The overall design is rendered in moderate relief with clean, well-defined lettering characteristic of mid-nineteenth century Cambodian coinage patterns. |

| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a tiered Khmer royal palace or prasat (tower-shrine) rendered in fine detail, showing multiple rooflines with upswept eaves, latticed decorative panels, and a finial surmounting the uppermost tier. The architectural composition fills the entire field and is executed in bold relief, reflecting the traditional Khmer artistic style of the period. The design is presented without a surrounding legend, allowing the elaborate architectural imagery to dominate the flan. |
