| Obverse description | Central field displays the Teutonic Order's heraldic shield bearing an eagle displayed, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The shield is rendered in Gothic style typical of late 15th-century Germanic coinage. Surrounding the inner circle is a circular Gothic legend in uncial lettering reading MAGIST MARTInV' PRIM, referencing Grand Master Martin Truchsess von Wetzhausen. The outer legend is separated from the central device by a beaded border, and a small star or cross ornament punctuates the inscription. |

| Reverse description | Central field displays the Teutonic Order's heraldic shield surmounted by a crown, the shield bearing the characteristic plain cross of the Order divided into four quarters. The device is set within a beaded inner circle. A circular Gothic legend in uncial lettering surrounds the central device, reading M MOnETA DnORVM PRV., an abbreviated form of Moneta Dominorum Prussiae (Coin of the Lords of Prussia). The overall composition is consistent with Teutonic Order schilling coinage of the late 15th century. |
