| Obverse description | The bishop seated on a folding chair decorated with animal heads; on the head a single-pointed miter in the form of a triangle, on each side of the face three rings to indicate the harlocks. The chasuble is held together under the neck by a very small clasp in the shape of a rhombus, the surface of which is divided by a recessed spherical cross. The rays of the Y-shaped chasuble border are covered with a varying number (3 to 5) rings. The bishop holds a staff in his right hand and an open book in his left, with a dot above it. The depiction interrupts the inscription below. |

| Reverse description | Under a vault supported by two columns, formed by a fine line and a string of pearls, a standing wheel with six spokes. Above the vault rises a tower with three windows and a pointed shingle roof ending in a cross; this separates the circumscribing at the vertex. On each side of the tower there is a crossbar on which a flag is fluttering. In any case, the city wall is supposed to be indicated by two small ticks, which extend to the right and left at about the height of the column capitals. |
