| Obverse description | Central field displays the crowned arms of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt, featuring a quartered shield surmounted by a royal crown. The shield bears the characteristic Schwarzburg eagle and heraldic devices of the principality. The entire armorial composition is flanked by a wreath of oak branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow, rendered in fine relief. The border is formed by a continuous inner ring of beading. No peripheral legend appears on the obverse, the design relying solely on the heraldic motif. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a bold, three-line denomination inscription in large Roman serif capital letters occupying the central field: '1 / KREUZER' with the date '1868' below. The word 'SCHEIDEMÜNZE' (meaning token or subsidiary coinage) is inscribed in a curved arc along the upper periphery. The composition is clean and typographic, with no figurative elements, framed by a beaded border consistent with the obverse. The overall layout is well-balanced and characteristic of mid-19th-century German small coinage. |
