| Obverse description | Central quartered shield bearing the Hungarian coat of arms, with Árpád horizontal stripes occupying the dexter half and a single Angevin fleur-de-lis on the sinister half, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend reads + REGIS · KAROLI in Latin characters. The entire design is struck on a thin, irregular flan characteristic of hammered medieval coinage. |

| Reverse description | A patriarchal double cross rising from a base, its shaft dividing two crowned facing heads in the lower quarters of the field, with two small birds flanking the cross in the central register, and a star and a crescent moon positioned in the upper field to either side of the cross head. The design is contained within a beaded border and executed in the flat, linear style typical of Angevin Hungarian hammered silver coinage of the early fourteenth century. |
