| Obverse description | Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the field, with wings spread and heads facing outward, set within a beaded inner circle. The legend surrounds the eagle along the outer rim, reading FERDINAND. II. D. G. RO. IM. S: A:, invoking the authority of Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II. The execution is characteristic of early seventeenth-century German hammered gold coinage. |

| Reverse description | The civic arms of Stralsund displayed centrally within an ornamental wreath, with the mint official's mark S positioned below the wreath. The date 1632 appears incorporated at the end of the surrounding legend, which reads AVREVS. STRALSVNDENS. 1632 S. The composition reflects the municipal pride and civic identity of the Hanseatic city of Stralsund, rendered in the hammered style typical of German city coinage of the period. |
