| Obverse description | The obverse displays the crowned Bavarian coat of arms — a quartered shield bearing the characteristic blue and white lozengy pattern of Bavaria alongside the Palatinate lion — centrally placed within an ornamental wreath of palm fronds tied at the base. The royal crown surmounting the shield is rendered in fine detail, and a small orb appears at the base of the escutcheon. The coin field is plain with no surrounding legend, and the toothed border of the milled coin rim frames the entire device. |

| Reverse description | The reverse bears a bold, centrally positioned denomination inscription arranged across four lines in large capital letters: the numeral '1' flanked by small ornamental stars at the top, followed by 'PFEN-', 'NING.', the date '1793.', and the mint mark 'A' at the foot. The lettering is raised and occupies nearly the full field, with no surrounding legend. The toothed milled border frames the design, and the plain style reflects the utilitarian character of this small copper circulation piece. |
