The shield is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The peripheral legend, reading NACH. REICHS. SCHR: V: KOR, referencing the Imperial monetary ordinance and the grain standard, runs along the outer margin between the beaded border and the rim. |

| Reverse description | Central field bearing the city arms of Halberstadt: a divided shield with the episcopal see's wheel or mural motif in the lower half, surmounted by a large imperial or mural crown with multiple arches and orbs, all rendered in a bold hammered relief characteristic of early seventeenth-century German municipal coinage. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend MON.NOVA.HALBERS** — an abbreviation for Moneta Nova Halberstadensis, identifying this as new coinage of Halberstadt — runs between the beaded border and the toothed outer rim. |
