Obverse description Central field occupied by a large quartered heraldic shield bearing the arms of the Lordship of Jever and associated territories, surmounted by a princely crown. The escutcheon is elaborately detailed with multiple heraldic charges across its quarters. A circular Latin legend surrounds the shield, composed of abbreviated titulature reading C. W. P. A. D. S. E & W. C. A. D. S. B. I. & K., referring to Charles William, Prince of Anhalt, Lord of Jever and Kniphausen. The overall design reflects late 17th-century German provincial coinage conventions.

Reverse description Central field displays a smaller ornate heraldic shield or orb device, enclosed within a beaded or linear inner circle. The circumferential legend MONETA NOVA IEVERNSIS runs around the periphery of the coin in Latin capital letters, identifying this as a new coinage of Jever. The die work is consistent with late 17th to early 18th-century German small denomination billon coinage, with modest but legible relief.
