| Obverse description | Stylised facing bust of St. Peter rendered in a schematic, medieval manner, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The effigy is depicted in a highly abstract style characteristic of 14th-century episcopal coinage, with rudimentary facial features suggested rather than defined. The surrounding legend reads S PETRVS, separated by a small cross at the top, all contained within the beaded outer border of the coin. |

| Reverse description | A cross pattée with expanding arms occupying the central field, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The arms of the cross are boldly rendered in the hammered style, with a small pellet visible in the lower right quarter. The surrounding marginal legend + GENEVAS runs between the inner circle and the beaded outer rim, referencing the episcopal city of Geneva. |
