Beschrijving voorzijde Crude facing bust of King Henry II, helmeted and draped, rendered in the simplified Ottonian stylistic tradition typical of early medieval German coinage. The effigy occupies the central field, with the facial features schematically depicted in low relief. The surrounding circular legend reads HEINRICVS REX, identifying the ruler as King Henry. The legend is separated from the central device by a beaded inner border, and the overall flan is irregular in shape, characteristic of hammered silver deniers of the period.

Beschrijving keerzijde A large cross pattée dominates the reverse field, dividing the design into four quarters. Within the angles of the cross, the letters of the mint name ARGENTINA (Strasbourg) are distributed, reading A-R-G-E-N-T-I-N-A across the quadrants. The inscription is presented in two lines across the cross arms as ARGEN / TINA, consistent with the standard Strasbourg mint type of Henry II. A beaded border encircles the design, and the flan edges are irregular, reflecting hand-hammered production. The overall style is bold and angular, typical of Rhenish ecclesiastical mint output of the early eleventh century.
