| Obverse description | Central field features a large Gothic letter S enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The field is quartered by implied divisions, with pellets occupying the first, second, and third quarters and a crescent in the fourth quarter. The circumscribed Latin legend +PRIN.CEPS surrounds the inner circle, interrupted by the quarter motifs. The coin is struck on an irregular flan with typical Crusader-period hammered fabric. |

| Reverse description | Central design features a plain cross pattée set within a beaded inner circle, dividing the field into four quarters each containing a pellet at the outer angle. A crescent appears in one quarter. The circumscribed Latin legend +ANTIO.hIA surrounds the inner circle. The overall style is characteristic of the debased Crusader coinage of the mid-twelfth century, struck on a roughly circular copper flan. |
