| Obverse description | Quartered shield of arms occupying the central field, displaying fleurs-de-lis in the first and fourth quarters and rampant lions in the second and third quarters; a small inescutcheon bearing a lion is superimposed at the fess point. The shield is enclosed within a circular legend border rendered in uncial characters. The overall style is characteristic of late medieval Low Countries hammered coinage, with irregular flan edges and uneven strike. |

| Reverse description | A short-footed cross with a fleur-de-lis placed at its center, the arms of the cross extending toward the inner border of the surrounding circular legend. The cross divides the field into four quadrants, each left plain. The legend, rendered in uncial script, encircles the entire design within a beaded or plain inner border, consistent with the hammered coinage of the late medieval Low Countries. |
