| Obverse description | Bust of Emperor Franz I facing right, enclosed within a beaded lozenge (rhombus) frame set in the coin's field. The emperor's titles appear in the surrounding legend in abbreviated Latin, reading: FRANZ KAIS. V. OEST. KOEN. Z. HUNG. BOEH. GALIZ. U. LOD. The legend is punctuated by star separators and arranged in four segments corresponding to the sides of the rhombus. The overall design reflects the formal neoclassical portraiture style characteristic of early 19th-century Austrian imperial coinage. |

| Reverse description | A crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the center of the field, its wings spread, with the denomination numeral 30 prominently displayed on the breast shield within a circular frame. The eagle is enclosed within a beaded lozenge (rhombus). A multi-line legend surrounding the rhombus reads in four segments, conveying the denomination, monetary standard, and date: DREYSSIG KREUTZER / WIENER ST. / BANCO ZEIT. / THEILUNGS MÜNZ Z.30.K. / ERBLAENDISCH 1807. The outer border features a reeded or toothed rim. The legend arrangement and the use of both the Wiener Standard and Banco Zettel monetary references are characteristic of the Austrian monetary reform coinage of this period. |
