| Obverse description | Divided heraldic shield occupying the central field, with the dexter half bearing three horizontal bars and the sinister half displaying four lilies arranged in pairs. A single lily is positioned above the shield as a crest. The design is rendered in the bold, simplified relief typical of medieval hammered coinage. A circular legend in Latin uncial script surrounds the central device. |

| Reverse description | The aurochs head, dynastic symbol of Moldavia, faces the viewer frontally in the central field, with a five-pointed star placed between the horns. A five-petaled rose appears to the right of the aurochs head, and a crescent moon is positioned to the left. The design elements are characteristic of Moldavian medieval coinage under Voivode Peter II. A surrounding circular legend in Latin uncial script frames the central device. |
