Obverse description Frontal ducal bust wearing a flat headdress, the figure depicted in a hieratic, stylized manner characteristic of medieval Germanic coinage. The duke holds a lily scepter in each raised hand, symbols of sovereignty and dynastic authority. The bust is contained within a rounded inner circle, itself enclosed by a distinctive star-shaped outer border formed by pointed elements.

Reverse description Architectural motif featuring three pointed gables arranged in a row, beneath the central gable a bearded male head shown full-face, likely representing a civic or heraldic symbol. Above the gables, two confronted birds — identified as eagles with heads turned backward in addorsed fashion — flank the composition. The design is enclosed within a plain linear circle, with a rosette border composed of hollow rosettes forming the outer ring.
