Obverse description A crowned eagle displayed in the field, rendered in a crude, stylized manner characteristic of late 14th-century Polish hammered coinage. The eagle's wings are spread and the head is turned to the right. A partial legend in Gothic lettering runs along the periphery within a beaded border. The die workmanship is rough, reflecting the irregular flan preparation typical of the Wschowa mint during this period.

Reverse description A heraldic shield set within a rectangular inner frame occupying the central field, bearing a divided or quartered device associated with the arms of the Wschowa (Fraustadt) mint. The composition is divided by a vertical line, with charges on each half rendered in low relief. A partial legend in Gothic lettering surrounds the shield along the upper rim within a beaded outer border. The crude execution and irregular flan are consistent with hammered deniers of the Hedwig I and Ladislaus II Jagiello coinage.
