| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of King Maximilian II of Bavaria facing right, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail including wavy hair, full sideburns, and a neatly trimmed beard. The effigy is set within a wide, polished field and enclosed by a toothed (beaded) border. The legend MAXIMILIAN II in Latin capitals arcs along the left periphery, while KOENIG V. BAYERN continues along the upper and right periphery, separated by a small dot. The portrait exhibits a refined neoclassical style consistent with mid-19th century Bavarian medallic art. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is entirely blank, presenting a plain, uniface field enclosed by a raised rim with a beaded inner border. This unfinished reverse is characteristic of an obverse trial piece, struck solely to evaluate the obverse die design and portrait rendering without committing to a completed reverse composition. |
