| Obverse description | The obverse displays the crowned coat of arms of the Kingdom of Bavaria, featuring the quartered shield with the characteristic Bavarian lozengy pattern and the Rhenish Palatinate lion, surmounted by a royal crown. The shield is flanked on either side by an elaborate wreath of oak branches with acorns, tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The design fills the field in a bold, classical style with fine relief details. The coin border is defined by a toothed or milled rim. No peripheral legend is present on this side. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a plain, unadorned field bearing the denomination and date in three bold lines of serif capital lettering: the numeral '2' at the top, 'PFENNIGE' in the center, and '1842' at the base. The lettering is large and well-spaced, occupying the majority of the field in a clean, minimalist typographic arrangement. No additional devices, symbols, or legends accompany the inscription. The coin is bordered by a toothed rim consistent with the obverse. |
