Beschrijving voorzijde Four armorial shields arranged in cruciform fashion, two in the upper field and two in the lower field, with a smaller central shield of Münsterberg at the center. The date is divided by the central shield, appearing to the left and right. A circular Latin legend surrounds the composition, reading HENRI. KARL. D.G. DVC. MVNSTER(BER). 1569, identifying the joint rulers Henry III and Charles II as Dukes of Münsterberg by the grace of God. The die work is characteristic of mid-sixteenth century German hammered gold coinage, with bold lettering in a beaded inner border.

Beschrijving keerzijde Full-length frontal figure of Saint Christopher, robed and bearded, striding through water while supporting the Christ Child on his right shoulder with his left hand and grasping a tall staff or palm tree trunk in his right hand. The Christ Child is depicted in a blessing posture above the saint's shoulder. The surrounding circular Latin legend reads MONE. AVR(E) REICHSTEN(I)., identifying this as the gold coinage of Reichenstein. The bold, high-relief rendering of the saint is consistent with the devotional iconographic tradition found on Silesian gold ducats of the sixteenth century.
