| Obverse description | A seated allegorical female figure, crowned and draped, holds a caduceus in her left hand and extends a laurel wreath in her right. A lion reclines at her left side, while the panoramic skyline of Hamburg with its characteristic church spires and a harbour scene with sailing ships fills the background in fine relief. |

| Reverse description | The elaborate full coat of arms of the city of Hamburg — featuring a white castle on red — is displayed centrally in high relief, flanked by two rampant lion supporters on decorative scrollwork, surmounted by a crowned helm with mantling. The mint signature 'L. COR. LAUER NÜRNBERG' appears in small letters below the shield, with the date '1889' at the base and the circular legend around the periphery. |
