Obverse description Two standing royal figures facing front, representing the imperial couple, each holding a cross-tipped sceptre; jointly they support a tall patriarchal double cross at centre. The composition is rendered in a flat, linear medieval style typical of Serbian hammered coinage. Cyrillic initials appear in the field to either side of the figures. The design occupies nearly the full flan, with dotted border elements visible on portions of the coin's irregular edge.

The helmet is flanked by Cyrillic legend distributed across the field in two groups. The design is bold and deeply struck relative to the small flan, with a beaded or dotted border framing the composition on the irregular hammered planchet.
