| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by a quartered shield bearing the arms of Hesse: the upper-left and lower-right quarters display a chequered pattern, while the upper-right quarter features a wheel (the arms of Mainz) and the lower-left quarter bears a six-pointed star or mullet. The shield is set within a plain inner circle surrounded by a border of raised beads, typical of hammered pfennig coinage of the early sixteenth century. No legend is present; the design relies entirely on heraldic devices for identification. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is uniface or blank, as is characteristic of single-sided bracteate-style pfennig coinage of the Landgraviate of Hessen from this period. No design, legend, or device is struck on the reverse, presenting a plain, slightly concave silver surface resulting from the hammering process. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip of Hessen was only fourteen when he assumed the landgraviate in 1509, making this issue one of the few German territorial coins struck under a regency government — his mother Anna of Mecklenburg and later a council of nobles effectively controlled fiscal policy during these years. The small silver pfennig denominations of this period were notoriously difficult to produce consistently at regional mints, and Hessian examples frequently show irregular flans that complicate attribution.
