Obverse description Central field dominated by a heraldic eagle displayed, rendered in the Gothic style characteristic of Jagiellonian-era Polish coinage. The eagle, representing the Piast-derived emblem of Greater Poland, is depicted with wings spread and talons visible, occupying nearly the entire flan. The die work is bold though somewhat crude, consistent with the small hammered denier module. A partial inner circle or border may be present, though the irregular flan obscures the periphery.

Reverse description The reverse displays a bold cross pattée or long cross dividing the field into four quarters, with Gothic floral or annulet ornaments in the angles, enclosed within a beaded border clearly visible along the coin's circumference. The design is characteristic of the Poznań mint deniers of the Jagiellonian period, with the decorative interquartile elements serving as a mint or type identifier. The overall strike is typical of the hammered small-module coinage of early 15th-century Poland, showing moderate relief on a slightly irregular flan.
