| Obverse description | Stylized bust of Raymond de Poitiers facing right within a beaded inner circle, depicted with an elongated neck characteristic of this type — the so-called 'long neck' variety. The effigy is rendered in crude but distinctive medieval hammered style, with summary facial features. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner circle in the outer field. |

| Reverse description | A plain Greek cross centered within a beaded inner circle, with four equal arms extending nearly to the inner ring. The cross is set against a clear field. A circular Latin legend reading ANTIOCHIE runs in the outer field, separated from the inner circle by a rope or beaded border, characteristic of Crusader coinage of the Principality of Antioch. |
