| Obverse description | Central device composed of a raven's head and upper body facing right, enclosed within an ornate wreath or cartouche frame. The numeral '2' appears above the central device, with the mint initial 'K' positioned below, both flanking the frame. A circular Latin legend surrounds the entire composition, incorporating the date of issue. The design is rendered in a bold, provincial baroque style typical of early 18th-century German municipal coinage. |

| Reverse description | A displayed imperial eagle with wings spread and head turned to the left occupies the central field, rendered in a detailed heraldic style with clearly articulated feathers and talons. The eagle stands prominently against a plain field, conveying the civic authority of the issuing city. A two-part Latin devotional legend, separated into two lines by the coin's edge, encircles the eagle: 'DA.PAC.DOM.' on the right and 'IN.DIEB.NO.' on the left, invoking a prayer for peace. The engraving style is characteristic of early 18th-century German civic coinage. |
