| Obverse description | A patriarchal (double-barred) cross rises from a triple hill (montes) at center, with the two arms of the cross dividing the field and flanking a mintmark on either side. The entire design is enclosed within a circular legend. The cross and hill motif is rendered in the characteristic flat, incuse style typical of Hungarian hammered medieval deniers. The legend surrounds the central device in Latin characters. |

| Reverse description | A crowned quartered shield occupies the center of the field, bearing the fourfold coat of arms of Ladislaus V: the Árpád dynastic horizontal stripes of Hungary in the first and fourth quarters, the rampant Bohemian lion in the second quarter, the Austrian fess (horizontal bond) in the third quarter, and the Moravian eagle in the fourth quarter. The crown surmounting the shield is rendered in a simplified, stylized manner consistent with mid-15th-century Hungarian hammered coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the shield, naming the territories of the king's dominion. |
