| Obverse description | A crowned dragon depicted in profile facing right with head turned back to the left, rendered in low relief in the bold, stylized manner characteristic of 13th-century Austrian bracteate coinage. The creature's body fills the inner field, with decorative pellets visible along the lower portion of the design. The composition is enclosed within a plain inner border circle, itself surrounded by the irregular hammered flan edge. |

| Reverse description | The heraldic shield of Austria — charged with a horizontal fess — displayed centrally within a wreath or leaved circle formed by stylized foliage, consistent with the decorative framing conventions of 13th-century Austrian pfennig coinage. The shield's divisions are clearly rendered in relief, with the surrounding leaf border forming a neat inner frame against the plain field. No legend present. |
