| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays a heraldic griffin passant, rendered in bold Gothic relief with outstretched wings and clawed forelegs, occupying the majority of the coin's face. The creature is depicted in profile facing left, with fine feather detailing visible on the wings despite the limitations of the hammered technique. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The circumferential legend in Gothic uncial characters reads: + IOhS ⁑ DE BAVAIA ⁑ELE ⁑ LEOD ⁑ Z ⁑ C ⁑ L, identifying the issuer as John of Bavaria, elected Bishop of Liège and Count of Loon. The overall style is characteristic of late 14th-century Low Countries ecclesiastical coinage. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a bold long cross extending to the coin's edge, dividing the field into four quadrants each containing a curved concave segment forming a quatrefoil or quatre-arcs pattern at the centre, typical of the Gothic groat coinage tradition of the Low Countries. A small ornamental motif, likely a rosette or heraldic device, is placed at the intersection of the cross arms. The design is framed within a beaded inner border. The circumferential legend in Gothic uncial script reads: ✠ MONE TA ⁑ NOV A ⁑ LEOD IENCIS, identifying this as new coinage of Liège. The treatment of the cross and its concave quarters closely follows the regional gros type established in the Prince-Bishopric during the 14th century. |
