| Obverse description | Bipartite shield displaying the arms of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg: the dexter half bearing a pale (vertical stripes), and the sinister half divided into three compartments each containing a boar's head, the whole surmounted by the initial letter 'H' above the shield. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, characteristic of small hammered coinage of the early seventeenth century. |

| Reverse description | Plain or nearly blank reverse field, heavily worn and largely featureless, consistent with the thin hammered fabric typical of small German copper Pfennig coinage of the early seventeenth century. Faint traces of a possible design or legend are present but are indistinguishable due to wear and the irregular flan. A beaded border remnant is visible along portions of the periphery. |
