| Obverse description | Plain copper field with no visible design elements or legend, presenting a uniformly flat and unadorned surface. The flan shows typical characteristics of a small late 17th-century German Heller, with a granular texture consistent with the copper planchet preparation of the period. Heavy wear and surface corrosion have obscured any original design that may have been present. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a legend in Latin script arranged across the central field, reading H MEIN HELLER 1700, referencing the Henneberg-Meiningen issuing authority and the date of issue. The inscription is struck in a simple typographic style characteristic of small copper coinage of the late Holy Roman Empire period. The flat field and minimal decorative elements reflect the utilitarian nature of this low-denomination Heller. Significant wear and surface corrosion render the lettering only partially legible on the surviving example. |
