| Beschrijving voorzijde | The three crowned figures of the Holy Magi — Caspar, Melchior, and Balthasar — are depicted standing in high relief, facing the viewer, each wearing a royal crown and period robes. The central Magus is the tallest and most prominent, flanked symmetrically by the other two, all rendered in a robust late-Gothic hammered style. Below the three figures, the armorial shield of the City of Cologne is prominently displayed, bearing three crowns above and ermine drops below, the traditional Cologne civic arms. A circular Latin legend runs along the outer border, reading: IASPAR mELChI OR ET • BA LTASAR O · FELI · COL, identifying the Magi and the city of Cologne. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a plain outer rim. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts the Ship of Saint Ursula in a richly detailed late-Gothic composition, showing Saint Ursula and her legendary companions crowded aboard a vessel with a tall central mast, two banners or pennants flying above. The figures, rendered in high sculptural relief, are shown in animated postures within the hull of the ship, which rides stylized waves in the lower field. To the left and right, additional standing figures with religious attributes flank the vessel. A circular Latin legend surrounds the entire scene, reading: * SAnGVInE hI * ROSEO * REGnA * VICERE * SVPEnA *, a devotional inscription referring to the martyrs who conquered the heavenly kingdom through their rosy blood. The design is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse. |
