| Obverse description | Draped bust of Archbishop Sigismund von Schrattenbach facing right, with abbreviated Latin legend surrounding the effigy. The portrait is rendered in the Baroque style typical of mid-18th century ecclesiastical coinage, with fine drapery detail at the shoulder. The circumscription reads SIGISM D G A & P S, standing for Sigismundus Dei Gratia Archiepiscopus et Princeps Salisburgensis. |

| Reverse description | Two oval heraldic shields — one bearing the arms of the Archbishopric of Salzburg and the other the personal arms of Sigismund von Schrattenbach — displayed side by side and surmounted by an archiepiscopal cross and hat with tassels, all set upon an ornate Baroque pedestal. The denomination XX (20) appears prominently on the pedestal below the shields. The legend G·PRIM reads to the left and BAST·M to the right, with the date split across the upper field flanking the cross. The overall design is characteristic of the elaborate ecclesiastical heraldic style of 18th-century Salzburg coinage. |
