| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays a crowned coat of arms of the Bishopric of Sion, featuring the episcopal shield quartered with the Valais stripes and an interlaced 'S' monogram, surmounted by a bishop's mitre and cross. The shield is rendered in high relief with bold, angular Gothic engraving characteristic of early sixteenth-century Swiss hammered coinage. A beaded inner border frames the central device, with the surrounding legend reading +MATHEVS*EPS*SEDV`PRE`·ET·CO`·V` — an abbreviated Latin inscription identifying Matthaus Schiner as Bishop of Sion, Governor and Count of Valais. The lettering is in Gothic majuscule script distributed evenly around the coin's circumference. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A full-length enthroned figure of Saint Theodore, patron saint of Sion, is depicted facing forward in a formal, hieratic posture. The saint wears full episcopal vestments including a mitre and cope, holding a crozier in his left hand and a sword upright in his right, with a bell at his feet — attributes closely associated with his iconography in Valais tradition. The figure is rendered in bold relief with fine drapery detail typical of late medieval Swiss hammered silver coinage. The surrounding legend S THEODO PAT` SEDV` identifies the saint in abbreviated Latin, distributed in Gothic majuscule letters around the circumference within a beaded border. |
