| Obverse description | Frontal bust of the archbishop wearing a mitra, set beneath a Romanesque arch flanked by two towers. A cross surmounts the arch above the head. The architectural framing is rendered in a schematic, stylised manner typical of late 13th-century Austrian ecclesiastical bracteate-influenced coinage. The design is struck on an irregularly shaped flan with flat, unlettered fields. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays faint, poorly preserved traces of a lion passant or rampant facing left, rendered in low relief consistent with the thin hammered flan and characteristic of contemporary Salzburg pfennig coinage. The design is heavily worn and largely indistinct, with only the general form of the heraldic lion discernible against a plain, unlettered field. |
