Beschrijving voorzijde The Genoese city gate (castello or porta), depicted in high relief as a turreted gateway with three merloned towers, is centrally positioned within a multi-lobed (polylobed) inner circle. The gateway, a traditional emblem of Genoa, is rendered in the bold, simplified style characteristic of late medieval Ligurian hammered coinage. A circular legend in uncial Latin script surrounds the polylobe border, reading the titles of Charles VI of France as lord of Genoa. The flan is irregular, as is typical of hand-struck medieval gold coinage of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde A cross pattée with flared terminals is prominently displayed at the centre of the design, enclosed within a multi-lobed (polylobed) inner circle whose cusps frame each arm of the cross. The four quadrants formed by the cross arms are plain fields, consistent with the austere aesthetic of Genoese medieval gold coinage. A circular legend in uncial Latin letters surrounds the composition, invoking the traditional Carolingian formula in the name of Conrad, King of the Romans — a convention retained on Genoese coinage long after its symbolic origin. The overall composition is bold and well-centred despite the irregularity of the hammered flan.
