| Obverse description | Two adjacent heraldic shields displayed side by side: the dexter shield bears the Brandenburg eagle, while the sinister shield displays four stag antlers, the arms of the County of Regenstein. The design is struck in bracteate fashion, appearing in relief on the obverse with the impression visible as an incuse on the reverse. The composition is rendered in the plain field typical of late medieval German Pfennig coinage. |

| Reverse description | Blank, as is characteristic of bracteate coinage, where the single thin flan produces an incuse mirror image of the obverse design rather than a separately engraved reverse type. |
