| Obverse description | Two heraldic shields displayed side by side, bearing the arms of the Archbishopric of Salzburg and the personal arms of Archbishop Maximilian Gandolph von Kuenburg respectively. The date appears above the shields in the upper field, while the initials MG (for Maximilian Gandolph) are placed below, serving as the archbishop's privy mark. The design is rendered in a simple, compact style typical of small-denomination ecclesiastical coinage of the late seventeenth century. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is uniface, struck blank without any design, legend, or device, a common practice for small Pfennig denominations of this period where the thin flan did not permit a reverse impression. |
