| Obverse description | Armored and draped bust of Count Hermann of Hatzfeldt to right, wearing plate armor with a mantle tied at the shoulder, his hair falling to the neck and a short beard visible. The effigy is rendered in high relief with finely engraved detail on the cuirass and drapery. A continuous Latin legend surrounds the portrait within a beaded border, divided between the upper and lower fields, referencing both the count and Emperor Ferdinand III. |

| Reverse description | The Virgin Mary, crowned and seated upon clouds, holds the Christ Child before her amid radiating rays of glory, presented as a celestial vision. A small escutcheon bearing the arms of the Hatzfeldt family is positioned in the lower field beneath the figures. The devotional composition reflects the Baroque religious iconography characteristic of Counter-Reformation coinage. A Latin legend encircles the design within a beaded border, invoking the Madonna as protectress of the Hatzfeldt family and its mining operations. |
