| Obverse description | Two facing busts shown side by side, separated by a stylized palm tree rendered as a vertical beaded stem with foliate finial, the whole composition set above a simple crenellated wall with a beaded lower border. The busts, facing outward symmetrically, are depicted in a schematic Romanesque style with beaded crowns and rudimentary drapery. A small annulet appears in the upper left field. |

| Reverse description | A lion passant to the left, rendered in a bold Romanesque style, holding a long cross in its forepaws. The lion's body is depicted with characteristic medieval stylization, with a curling tail and prominent claws. The design occupies the majority of the irregular flan, with a plain field surrounding the device. |
