| Obverse description | Within a beaded or wire inner circle, the Polish Jagiellonian eagle displayed facing left, wings spread, rendered in the Gothic heraldic style typical of mid-15th century Hungarian hammered coinage. The eagle occupies the central field, its plumage indicated by crude but expressive die work. The circumferential legend, separated by pellets, reads in uncial Latin script and identifies the issuing ruler. |

| Reverse description | The mirrored Hungarian composite coat of arms occupies the central field, divided vertically: the dexter half displays the Árpádian dynastic stripes (barry of eight), while the sinister half bears the patriarchal double cross on a mount, rendered in the characteristic compact style of Hungarian deniers of the Jagiellonian period. The design is struck on a thin, irregular flan with shallow but legible details. The circumferential legend in uncial Latin runs around the periphery, identifying the kingdom. |
