| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Emperor Charles VI with long flowing curled wig, wearing armored pauldron and imperial mantle. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the baroque style typical of early 18th-century Austrian coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, divided across the upper and lower fields. The coin's milled edge border frames the design closely. |

| Reverse description | Crowned imperial double-headed eagle displayed, each head surmounted by a separate crown beneath a central imperial crown, with wings spread and elaborate plumage rendered in fine detail. At the center of the eagle's breast is a quartered heraldic shield bearing the arms of the Habsburg dominions. The date appears in the upper field flanking the crown, and the Latin legend is distributed around the periphery of the coin. The composition is characteristic of the baroque heraldic style of the Holy Roman Empire. |
