| Obverse description | Quartered shield bearing the arms of Württemberg (three stags' antlers) and Mömpelgard (a bend), set within a beaded inner circle. A Gothic uncial legend surrounds the shield, reading the names and titles of the joint counts, interrupted by small cross stops. The overall style is characteristic of late medieval South German hammered coinage. |

| Reverse description | Quartered shield displaying the combined arms of Baden (a diagonal bend) and Sponheim (a chequered pattern), centrally placed within a beaded inner circle. A Gothic uncial circumscription runs around the outer field, referencing the margrave Christian of Baden, punctuated by cross stops. The die work is typical of late 15th-century Swabian minting practice. |
