| Obverse description | Plain cross pattée centered within a beaded inner circle, dividing the field into four equal quarters. The surrounding legend, partially legible, runs along the periphery outside the beaded border. The strike is characteristic of late medieval hammered coinage, showing typical irregularity in flan shape and depth of relief. |

| Reverse description | Central device depicting a cornet (hunting horn), the heraldic emblem of the Princes of Orange, shown in profile within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding peripheral legend is partially legible and runs clockwise outside the inner beaded border. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, consistent with late 15th-century hammered feudal coinage of southern France. |
