Obverse description Frontal standing figure of the archbishop in pontifical vestments, holding a crozier in his left hand and raising his right hand in blessing. The effigy is rendered in the romanesque style typical of Friesach bracteate coinage, with stylized drapery folds and architectural framing elements flanking the figure. A cross appears above the head. The legend EBERHA // RD S EPS is distributed around the field in retrograde or segmented form along the coin's periphery.

Reverse description Depiction of a crenellated tower or castle gateway with a bearded facing head or mask at its base, flanked by two rampant lions or heraldic supporters, reflecting the civic emblem of Friesach. The composition is rendered in bold, stylized relief characteristic of hammered Friesach-type deniers. The peripheral legend FRISACH identifies the mint. The overall design shows the influence of Romanesque decorative convention common to late 12th- and early 13th-century Austrian ecclesiastical coinage.
