| Obverse description | Two adjacent heraldic shields displayed side by side within a beaded border: the dexter shield bearing the Nuremberg eagle, and the sinister shield bearing the Franconian rake, the two forming the civic arms of the Free Imperial City. The date is positioned in the field above the shields, flanked by small ornamental stars, and the mintmark letter N appears below in the field between the bases of the shields. |

| Reverse description | An imperial orb surmounted by a cross, displaying the numeral 3 within the lower globe, all set within an elaborate baroque foliate and scrollwork frame that fills the coin's field to the beaded border. The design is rendered in a bold, deeply engraved style characteristic of early seventeenth-century German hammered coinage. |
