| Obverse description | The arms of the Free City of Augsburg occupy the central field, depicting the city's pine cone shield supported by two allegorical figures seated on either side of a central globe or orb. Above the shield, a crowned imperial double-headed eagle spreads its wings. The date is inscribed in the exergue below the supporters, flanked by small stars. The circular legend AVGVSTA VIN - DELICORVM runs along the periphery, identifying the city in Latin. |

| Reverse description | A right-facing draped bust of Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI fills the central field, rendered in a high-relief Baroque style with long flowing curled hair falling over his armored shoulders. The emperor is shown in profile with a laureate or wigged presentation consistent with imperial portraiture of the period. The bold circular legend CAR • VI • D • G • R • I • - S • A • G • H • H • & • B • RX • encircles the bust, abbreviating his full imperial and royal titles: Carolus VI, Dei Gratia Romanorum Imperator, Semper Augustus, Germaniae, Hungariae, Bohemiae Rex. |
