Obverse description Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Charles VI facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed flowing wig and lace cravat. The effigy is boldly modeled in the Baroque style characteristic of early eighteenth-century Habsburg coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, interrupted at the base by the truncation of the bust. The inner field is smooth and unadorned, with the portrait dominating the coin face. The entire design is enclosed within a toothed border.

Reverse description The standing crowned figure of the Virgin Mary as Patrona Hungariae occupies the center of the reverse, holding the infant Christ on her left arm and a scepter in her right hand, both figures surrounded by an elaborate radiate glory of long and short rays emanating from behind the Virgin. The denomination numeral '30' appears in the lower exergual area, flanked by the mint mark letters 'K' and 'B' on either side of the design. The date 1740 is positioned in the upper portion of the field, integrated into the surrounding circular Latin legend. The composition is executed in fine Baroque style, with the Virgin standing on a crescent moon. A toothed border frames the entire design.
