| Obverse description | Helmeted bust of the prince facing left, depicted in chain mail armour within a beaded inner circle. A six-pointed star appears atop the helmet. The field is plain, with no crescent or additional star flanking the effigy. The overall style is characteristic of Crusader coinage, rendered in a schematic, flat manner typical of hammered billon issues of the Principality of Antioch. |

| Reverse description | A plain Latin cross pattee occupying the full field, dividing the reverse into four quadrants. A crescent appears in the upper left quadrant, opening to the right, positioned between the arms of the cross. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, beyond which a Latin legend runs in the outer margin. Stars and decorative elements appear in the quadrants, consistent with the standard reverse type of Antiochene deniers attributed to Bohemond IV. |
