| Obverse description | Central field displays an ornate crowned ducal cipher composed of intertwined script initials, likely representing the monogram of Ernest Louis I of Saxe-Meiningen. The cipher is surmounted by a ducal crown with prominent cross finial at apex. The design is executed in a bold baroque style typical of early eighteenth-century German minor coinage, with the monogram rendered in elaborate interlaced script against a plain field. No peripheral legend is present. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination and date arranged in three horizontal lines across the central field: the mint initial 'M' flanked by mullets at the top, the word 'HELLER' in the centre, and the date '1714' below. The legend is enclosed within a plain circular border with a finely beaded inner rim visible around the periphery. The lettering is rendered in a bold upright Roman style consistent with early eighteenth-century German copper coinage. |
