| Obverse description | The municipal arms of Nuremberg — a party per bend sinister shield displaying the characteristic Nuremberg eagle and diagonal bends — displayed prominently at center within an ornate quatrefoil frame with decorative cusped lobes. The shield is rendered in the Gothic heraldic style typical of early 15th-century German coinage. A circular legend in Gothic lettering runs along the periphery of the flan, partially legible due to the irregular hammered planchet. |

| Reverse description | A spread imperial eagle facing left, with wings displayed and tail feathers fanning downward, rendered in the bold Gothic style characteristic of Holy Roman Empire coinage of the early 15th century. The eagle occupies the central field, enclosed within a beaded or rope inner circle. A circular Latin legend in Gothic characters surrounds the design along the coin's periphery, partially truncated at the flan's irregular edge. |
