| Obverse description | Central device depicting the Columns of Gediminas (Gediminaičių stulpai), the dynastic heraldic symbol of the Lithuanian ruling house, rendered in a bold, primitive style characteristic of hammered medieval coinage. The columnar device, composed of a central pillar flanked by two shorter lateral columns topped with a finial, occupies the majority of the irregular flan. The field is unadorned and there is no surrounding legend. The striking is typical of early 15th-century Lithuanian minting, with flat relief and irregular flan edges. |

| Reverse description | Central device depicting a spearhead or lance point accompanied by a small cross positioned to the right, rendered in low relief on an unadorned field. The motif is a common heraldic charge found on Lithuanian denars of the Vytautas period, struck on an irregularly shaped flan with no surrounding legend. The design is characteristic of the simplified, utilitarian style of hammered silver coinage produced in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania during the early 15th century. |
