| Obverse description | The heraldic eagle of Frankfurt displayed in the field, facing dexter with wings spread wide and tail feathers fanned, surmounted by a small royal crown. The body of the eagle features finely engraved crosshatched plumage on the breast and detailed feathering on the wings. The talons grip an ornate foliate scroll device at the base, rendered in an elaborate Baroque style. The circumferential legend FREIE STADT FRANKFURT runs along the upper periphery in evenly spaced Latin capitals. |

| Reverse description | Within the field, the denomination numeral '2' appears above the inscription GULDEN, with the date below, all enclosed within a broad, finely detailed wreath of oak leaves and acorns. The wreath branches rise symmetrically from both sides, meeting at the top of the field, and are tied at the base by a ribbon bow rendered in high relief. The overall design is spare and elegant, with the denomination and date serving as the sole textual elements within the wreath. |
