| Obverse description | Right-facing cuirassed bust of Leopold Eberhard, Duke of Württemberg-Montbéliard, portrayed with a large flowing wig characteristic of the late Louis XIV period and elaborately damascened armor. The effigy is rendered in high relief with considerable detail in the treatment of the breastplate and drapery. The peripheral Latin legend surrounds the bust within the coin's field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a four-line Latin inscription arranged across the field reading LIARD / DE MONT / BELIARD / followed by the date, with a lozenge-shaped ornament at the top serving as a separating device. The legend identifies the denomination and place of issue. The entire design is contained within a toothed or grained border visible around the coin's circumference, consistent with early eighteenth-century milled copper coinage practice. |
