Obverse description A marten passant to the left occupies the central field, rendered in the stylized manner typical of medieval Slavonian provincial coinage. A rosette appears above the animal and a second rosette below, both serving as decorative field ornaments. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend reads MONETA REGIS P SCLAVONIA, identifying the coin as money of the King of Slavonia.

Reverse description A double cross with a raised rim dominates the central field, its vertical shaft terminating at the base in two small crowned heads facing one another, a characteristic motif of Slavonian deniers of this period. Mintmark letters appear in the two upper quadrants flanking the upper arm of the cross. In the uppermost field, an open star is positioned to the left and a crescent encircling a pellet or hoop is positioned to the right. The composition is bold and symmetrical, consistent with hammered medieval bracteate-influenced design traditions.
