| Obverse description | Crowned and draped bust of Emperor Ferdinand II facing right, depicted in high relief with visible regal regalia. The emperor's portrait is rendered in the crude hammered style typical of Kipper-period coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy, reading FERDINANDVS II D G R I S A G H B REX, identifying him as Holy Roman Emperor and King of Bohemia. The denomination numeral 150 appears prominently in the lower field beneath the bust. The overall strike shows characteristic weakness and irregular flan shape consistent with the debased emergency coinage of the Kipper und Wipper period. |

| Reverse description | Displayed double-headed imperial eagle with spread wings and shield on breast, struck in the hammered style typical of early 17th-century Bohemian emergency coinage. The eagle bears the Habsburg orb and insignia at its center, surmounted by an imperial crown. The date (1622 or 1623) appears in the field, flanked by the abbreviated titles of Ferdinand II. The surrounding Latin legend reads ARCHID AVS DVX BVR MA MO, referencing his titles as Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, Margrave of Moravia, and related dignities. The dotted inner border frames the design, consistent with hammered thalers of this emission. |
