Obverse description Ornate quartered coat of arms of the Fugger family, surmounted by a crowned helm bearing a fleur-de-lis crest, flanked by two elaborately mantled heraldic supporters — a crowned figure to the left and a mitred ecclesiastical figure to the right — all set within baroque scrollwork. The shield is divided into multiple quarters displaying the Fugger arms including lilies and a trident-like charge, with the date 1694 appearing in the lower field divided by the base of the escutcheon. The peripheral legend reads: FRANC. ERNEST. FVGGER. COMES. A. KIRCH. & W. B. A. P. 1694, separated by small ornamental stops, inscribed within a finely reeded border.

Reverse description Imperial double-headed eagle displayed, with wings spread, each head surmounted by a single arch crown, the whole ensigned by a central imperial crown above. On the breast of the eagle appears a circular orb. The eagle's talons grip a sword and a sceptre below a decorative foliate spray at the base of the field. The surrounding legend, reading LEOPOLDVS. I. ROM. IMP. SEMPER AVGVSTVS, acknowledges Leopold I as Holy Roman Emperor, and runs continuously around the coin's periphery within a reeded rim.
