Obverse description Central short cross pattée with splayed, triangular terminals set within a raised inner beaded circle. The arms of the cross extend toward the beaded border, with the angles of the cross visible in the four quadrants. Surrounding the inner circle, the circular Latin legend reads TARVISIVM, denoting the city of Treviso, introduced by a cross pommée. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the periphery, consistent with hand-struck hammered coinage of the period.

Reverse description Central short cross pattée with broad, splayed arms set within a raised inner beaded circle, the cross terminals nearly touching the inner circle. The four quadrants display the characteristic pattée form of 14th-century north Italian billon coinage. The surrounding circular Latin legend, rendered in uncial characters, reads COMES GOR with a star-shaped ornament, referencing Henry II as Count of Gorizia (Gorz). The flan exhibits the irregular, slightly lobate edge typical of hammered medieval denier-type issues.
