| Obverse description | Two confronted draped busts of Johann Christoph and Johann Seyfried facing one another within a raised inner circle, each depicted with long flowing hair and armored shoulders in the Baroque manner. The date 1654 appears in the lower exergual area between the two effigies. A circular Latin legend runs around the periphery, reading P·COM·GRADIS·IOAN·CHR·S·H·IOAN·SEYFS·R·I·P, identifying the two co-ruling counts. The coin's outer rim is finished with a fine toothed border. |

| Reverse description | A richly detailed quartered coat of arms, surmounted by a large ducal crown, is displayed at the centre within a raised inner circle. The shield is supported on either side by wild men or heraldic supporters, and the quarters incorporate various devices including an anchor, a wheel, and floral and zoomorphic charges emblematic of the Eggenberg dynasty. A circular Latin legend in the outer field reads DVC·CRVM·PRINC·AB·EGENBERG·FRAT, identifying the rulers as Dukes of Krummau and Princes of Eggenberg. The entire design is enclosed by a toothed outer border. |
