| Obverse description | A fleur-de-lis is depicted centrally within a trilobe frame, itself enclosed by a raised inner circle. The motif is rendered in the Gothic style typical of late medieval Low Countries minage. A legend in uncial Latin characters surrounds the central design within the outer beaded border, partially legible due to the irregular flan and characteristic wear of hammered copper coinage. |

| Reverse description | A short cross pattée is displayed at the centre of a quadrilobe frame, enclosed within a raised inner circle. The four arms of the cross extend into the lobes of the quatrefoil compartment, a design typical of Flemish and Maasland mite coinage of the late 15th century. A Latin legend in uncial characters encircles the central device within the outer beaded border, identifying the issuing authority and the nature of the coin as a nova moneta. |
