Obverse description The obverse of this pattern features the Imperial German Eagle displayed at center, rendered in high relief with spread wings, a crowned head facing right, and a heraldic shield on its breast bearing the Hohenzollern arms. The eagle is surrounded by a beaded border. The legend DEUTSCHES REICH arcs around the upper periphery, flanked by the date 1876 to the right, while the denomination ZWEI MARK appears across the lower field, all lettered in upright Latin characters consistent with the standard Imperial coinage design of the period.

Reverse description The reverse of this aluminium pattern trial is entirely blank, presenting a plain, unadorned field with no design, legend, or device of any kind. The flat surface retains visible die marks and surface texture consistent with an experimental or uniface trial strike, indicative of its status as a pattern piece submitted for approval rather than a coin intended for general circulation.
