| Obverse description | Central field features a pointed shield divided diagonally, displaying the Árpád dynastic horizontal stripes on one half and the Angevin fleurs-de-lis on the other, combining the heraldic emblems of the Hungarian royal house and the Anjou dynasty. The shield is set within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by a Latin circular legend reading '+ M · REGIS · KAROLI', identifying the issuer as King Károly (Charles Robert). The coin is struck on an irregular flan typical of hammered medieval coinage, with weak areas on the periphery consistent with the period. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a walking lion passant occupying the central field, rendered in the crude but vigorous style characteristic of early 14th-century Hungarian hammered coinage. Above the lion's back a stylized fleur-de-lis rises prominently, serving as an additional Angevin dynastic symbol. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, with portions of the design visible only partially, as is typical for deniers of this reign. No legend is present on the reverse. |
