Aversbeschreibung	Central field dominated by a bold cross pattée with a pellet at the centre and pellets in each angle, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The surrounding legend reads ∴ HЄINRVCV∾ DVX in Latin majuscule characters, identifying Henry II as Duke. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the periphery, characteristic of hand-hammered Ottonian coinage. The overall design is struck in low relief with a somewhat rustic die-cutting style typical of late tenth-century Regensburg mint production.

Reversbeschreibung	The reverse presents a stylised architectural or ecclesiastical motif consisting of a prominent triangular gable or roof-form at the top of the field, beneath which appear multiple horizontal bars arranged in register, evoking a schematic church façade or reliquary shrine associated with Saint Rupert. The surrounding legend SCS RVODVPTVS XIXI, invoking Sanctus Ruodbertus (Saint Rupert, patron saint of Salzburg and Bavaria), is rendered in Latin majuscules around the periphery. Pellets and small crosses serve as word dividers within the legend. The irregular flan and variable strike depth are consistent with the hammered technique employed at the Regensburg mint during the reign of Duke Henry II.
