| Obverse description | The crowned arms of Saxe-Meiningen occupy the central field, displaying the dynastic coat of arms surmounted by a ducal crown. A circular Latin legend surrounds the shield, running along the periphery of the coin. The overall design reflects the heraldic conventions typical of German states during the early nineteenth century. |

| Reverse description | The denomination and date are presented in a three-line inscription at the center of the field: the numeral '3' on the uppermost line, 'KREUZER' on the second line, and the date '1840' on the third line. The inscription is framed by a wreath of oak leaves, with branches tied at the base, a motif characteristic of German state coinage of the period. The composition is clean and typographic in character, with no additional pictorial elements in the field. |
