Beschrijving voorzijde Armoured bust of Frederick II (the Great) facing right, depicted in elaborately engraved plate armour with ornate pauldrons and a folded coat draped over the shoulder; a ribbon and cross are visible at the chest. The hair is rendered in tight curled locks falling to the nape of the neck in the style of the period. The encircling legend reads FRIDERICUS BORUSSORUM REX, with the engraver's initials ICM incuse at the lower left of the bust truncation. The portrait is executed in a finely detailed high-relief Baroque style characteristic of mid-18th century German coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde Central shield bearing a three-masted ship under full sail, surmounted by a crowned Prussian eagle displayed. The shield is supported by two standing figures: a wild man (Wilder Mann) to the left and a robed Chinese man to the right, reflecting the coin's role as trade coinage for the Royal Prussian Asian Company. Below the main shield hangs a smaller escutcheon bearing the monogram of the company (KPACVE). A ribbon banner in the exergue carries the motto CONFIDENTIA IN DEO ET VIGILANTIA, while the encircling legend above identifies the issuing institution as REGIA BORUSS: SOCETAS ASIAT: EMBDÆ.
