| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the crowned Arms of Hamburg centrally positioned in the field: a white castle with three towers on a red ground, flanked by two six-pointed stars and surmounted by a cross, all elements drawn from the civic heraldic tradition of the Free Hanseatic City. The shield is rendered in simple incuse style consistent with the small module of the coin. No surrounding legend appears on this side. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears the denomination and date arranged in three horizontal lines across the plain field: the numeral 'I' at the top centre, flanked on each side by a five-pointed star, followed by 'SECHSLING' in bold serif capital letters, and the date '1855' below. The design is unadorned and typographic in character, with no surrounding legend, the whole encircled by a plain raised rim with a fine beaded border. |

Hamburg's Sechsling denomination survived well into the nineteenth century largely through institutional inertia — the city's Senate was notoriously resistant to monetary reform, and small billon fractions continued circulating alongside the new Prussian-influenced coinage long after neighboring states had abandoned theirs. By 1855, Hamburg was one of the last German city-states still striking low-denomination billon, a habit it would finally surrender when it joined the North German monetary convention in 1857.
