Obverse description Facing bust of Saint Peter depicted in high relief within a Gothic archway flanked by two decorated towers, each surmounted by a small figural element; the saint is shown bearded and nimbed, wearing episcopal vestments, holding a sceptre in his right hand and a book (the Gospels) in his left. A heraldic shield bearing the arms of the Archbishopric of Trier is displayed in the lower field below the figure. The circumferential legend in Gothic uncial script runs between a plain inner circle and a beaded outer border.

Reverse description A heart-shaped heraldic shield bearing the quarterly arms of the Archbishopric of Trier — combining the cross of Trier and the scaly/chequered field — is depicted centrally within a six-pointed trefoil frame with prominent cusps and small pointed projections at each lobe. The shield is rendered in bold relief with clear field divisions. The circumferential legend in Gothic uncial script encircles the central device between a beaded inner border and a plain outer rim, identifying this as the new coinage of Wesel.
