Obverse description Two adjacent heraldic shields suspended from a looped hanger, displayed side by side in the center of the field. The left shield bears the two-fold arms of Anhalt, while the right shield displays the Aschersleben arms. A mintmark appears below the shields. The design is rendered in the primitive hammered style typical of early sixteenth-century German Pfennig coinage, with broad, irregular flan and shallow relief.

Reverse description Reverse is entirely blank, displaying only the flat, unworked surface of the flan with no devices, legends, or decorative elements, consistent with the bracteate-influenced single-die coinage tradition of early sixteenth-century Anhalt Pfennig issues.
