| Obverse description | Within an inner circle, a lion rampant to the left occupies the central field, rendered in the heraldic style typical of Rhenish coinage of the late 17th century. The lion, representing the arms of Jülich-Berg, is depicted with tail raised and forepaws extended. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, citing the titles of the reigning duke Philipp Wilhelm of Pfalz-Neuburg. The design is struck on a small flan with legends running continuously around the periphery. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a four-line central inscription within an inner circle, displaying the denomination and mint year in an orderly tabular arrangement: '2 / ALBVS / COLSCH / 1675'. A continuous Latin legend surrounds the inner circle reading MONE NOV IVLIACHENSIS, identifying this as a new coinage of Jülich. The layout follows the common Rhenish Albus tradition of presenting value and date prominently in the central field with the issuing authority's title in the surrounding legend. |
