| Obverse description | A griffon passant turned to the left occupies the central field, rendered in a bold, stylised medieval manner characteristic of hammered bracteate-style coinage. The creature's body, wings, and claws are depicted with strong linear detail typical of 14th-century North German municipal coinage. A beaded or dotted border encircles the design near the coin's irregular rim. |

| Reverse description | A plain cross with expanded arms divides the field into four quarters, with a small inner circle at the centre containing a six-pointed star or rosette. The quadrants formed by the cross arms each contain a small decorative element, and the design is enclosed within a beaded border following the irregular flan. The overall composition is characteristic of North German municipal coinage of the 14th century. |
