| Obverse description | Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) depicted in profile facing left, with a nimbus (halo) encircling its head, rendered in a crude medieval style characteristic of Norwegian hammered coinage of the late 11th to early 12th century. A peripheral legend surrounds the central device, though the inscription is largely illegible due to the irregular flan and imprecise striking typical of the period. |

| Reverse description | A bird displayed with wings spread and head turned to the right, likely a stylised eagle or dove, occupying the central field. The figure is executed in a rough, archaic manner consistent with Scandinavian hammered pennings of the reign of Magnus Barefoot (c. 1095–1110). A surrounding peripheral legend is present but largely unreadable owing to weak striking and irregular flan edges. |
