Beschrijving voorzijde Central field features the characteristic monogram of Hainaut, composed of interlaced letters forming a cruciform device with three stars enclosed within, and fleurs-de-lis or trefoils at the tips of the equatorial triangles. The monogram is set within a quadrilobe frame, with the letters H, Y, O, and N placed in the four exterior angles, serving as an abbreviated legend for Hainaut. The entire composition is encircled by a border of twelve five-petaled rosettes, each contained within an individual beaded circle, arranged evenly around the periphery. The overall design reflects the Tournois gros tradition adapted for the County of Hainaut.

Beschrijving keerzijde Central device consists of a short cross pattée with broad, flared arms, set within a beaded inner circle. This is surrounded by a double concentric legend separated by a beaded border, with the inner legend reading the count's name and title and the outer legend invoking the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The lettering is rendered in a bold Gothic majuscule characteristic of late 13th-century Low Countries coinage. The overall layout closely follows the model of the French gros tournois, adapting its double-legend format to the comital authority of Hainaut.
