| Obverse description | Central cross with a pellet in each of the four angles, all enclosed within a beaded inner circle. Radiating triangular points extend outward from the beaded circle toward the coin's periphery, forming a stylized sunburst or star pattern. A Latin legend runs within the outer field, partially legible due to the hammered flan and irregular strike. |

| Reverse description | A prominent triquetra (three-lobed interlaced motif of early medieval Germanic or Celtic derivation) occupies the central field, enclosed within a raised inner circle. Each lobe terminates in a pellet, and the interlaced design is rendered in bold relief characteristic of Ottonian-era coinage of the Eastern March. A partially legible Latin legend surrounds the central motif in the outer field. |
