| Obverse description | Within a beaded or rope border, two lines of bold Latin inscription reading FRI. CIR. appear in the field, imitating the abbreviated legend of Frisian duits. The date is struck below the inscription. The lettering is crude and characteristic of the hammered coinage of this small lordship. |

| Reverse description | Central shield bearing a rampant lion, closely imitating the arms of Friesland, surrounded by a wreath of stylized foliate ornament. The shield is surmounted by a crown. The overall design is crude and irregularly struck, consistent with the artisanal hammered coinage produced for this minor lordship. |
