| Obverse description | Three ornately decorated rounded shields arranged in a triangular composition occupy the central field; the uppermost shield bears the imperial double-headed eagle, while the two lower shields display the arms of the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg. The divided date is inscribed above the shield arrangement. The overall design reflects the heraldic tradition characteristic of early 17th-century German municipal coinage. |

| Reverse description | Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the central field, wings outstretched, without sword, scepter, or orb on the imperial breast shield. The eagle is rendered in the bold, angular style typical of early Kipper und Wipperzeit-era Nuremberg thalers, with the imperial crown rising prominently above the two heads. A circular Latin legend surrounds the eagle along the periphery of the coin. |
