| Obverse description | Full-length frontal figure of a standing margrave, depicted in stylized medieval fashion with outstretched wings rising from the shoulders, rendered in high relief on an unlettered field. The figure wears a long robe and holds the arms slightly extended at the sides. The crude but expressive workmanship is characteristic of mid-to-late 13th-century Brandenburg bracteate-related coinage. |

| Reverse description | A boldly struck trefoil ornament, composed of three rounded lobes radiating from a central point, enclosed within a hexafoil frame formed by six concave arcs. The overall design creates a geometric floral pattern that fills the coin's field, with the lobes and surrounding petals rendered in strong relief against a plain background. The style is typical of decorative reverse types used on late medieval German bracteates and pfennigs. |
