| Obverse description | Denomination '1 Bt' in large script occupies the central field, with the numeral '1' rendered in an upright serif style and 'Bt' in a flowing cursive hand. A peripheral circular legend reads 'HERMAN GOSSLING' around the upper and lateral border, with the date '1771' appearing at the base of the coin. The entire design is enclosed within a finely toothed milled border that frames both the legend and the central value device. |

| Reverse description | A goose standing in profile to the right is depicted in the central field, shown upon a grassy ground line with tufts of vegetation beneath its feet, rendered in a naive but recognisable style. A circular legend surrounds the central device, reading 'GOD BLESS St EUSTATIUS & GUVN', with the text distributed around the full circumference of the coin. The entire design is bounded by a prominent milled or reeded inner border consistent with the obverse treatment. |
