Obverse description A six-petalled rose rendered in low relief at the centre of the field, with each petal radiating symmetrically from a small central boss. The design is boldly struck in the bracteate manner on a thin, irregularly shaped flan. No legend or border is present. The workmanship is characteristic of medieval Pomeranian minor coinage.

Reverse description Incuse mirror image of the obverse, as is typical of bracteate coinage struck from a single die: a six-petalled rose visible in negative relief, with the petals appearing as recessed cavities radiating from a central depression. The flan shows the characteristic irregular outline and surface texture of hand-hammered medieval silver. No legend or inscription is present.
