| Obverse description | Draped and armored bust of Duke Carl Eugen facing right, with flowing wig, occupying the central field. The effigy is rendered in moderate relief in the baroque style typical of mid-18th-century German coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, reading CAROLVS: D: G: DVX. WURT: &: T, abbreviating his titles as Duke of Württemberg and Teck by the Grace of God. The coin border is defined by an inner ring of fine milling or dentils. |

| Reverse description | The central field displays the quartered coat of arms of Württemberg, surmounted by a ducal crown, and set within an ornate scallop shell or baroque cartouche with flanking foliate or feather-like mantling. The circular legend around the periphery reads WURTEMBURG: LANDMUNTZ with the date 1748 and the denomination .6.K. incorporated into the legend. The denomination .6.K. appears at the base of the design, identifying the coin as a 6 Kreuzer Landmünze. Fine dentilation is present along the coin's border. |
