| Obverse description | Frontal standing figure of Ban Stjepan II Kotromanić depicted in regal attire, flanked on either side by architectural elements or heraldic supporters rendered in a crude medieval style typical of Balkan hammered coinage. The figure holds attributes of rulership, with the abbreviated Latin legend BAN S-TEFA disposed to the left and right of the central effigy across the field. The die work is characteristic of 14th-century Bosnian minting practice, with bold if somewhat irregular relief and an uneven flan edge. |

| Reverse description | Frontal enthroned figure, likely a representation of the ban or a saints effigy in the Byzantine-influenced tradition common to medieval South Slavic coinage, seated formally with regalia held in both hands. The figure wears a crown or nimbus and is flanked by elongated sceptre-like objects, all rendered within a beaded inner border typical of the period. The field is relatively plain, and the overall composition reflects the strong influence of Serbian and Dalmatian denarius coinage on Bosnian monetary production of the mid-14th century. |
