| Obverse description | Ornate interlaced cypher of Count Christof Frederick, formed by the conjoined initials C and F rendered in elaborate calligraphic script, occupying the central field. The monogram is surmounted by a comital crown with floral and foliate ornaments. The plain field highlights the fine engraving of the interlaced letters. No peripheral legend is present. |

| Reverse description | The heraldic stag of Stolberg shown passant in the central field, facing left, standing upon a small pedestal or ground line. The stag bears the distinctive crowned antlers characteristic of the Stolberg arms, with a small crown atop the rack. The compact, finely engraved design fills the diminutive flan without a surrounding legend, reflecting the tiny format of this fractional gold piece. |
