Beschrijving voorzijde A plain cross with a pellet in each of the four quarters occupies the central field, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The cross divides the field into four equal cantons, each bearing a prominent raised pellet. A Latin imperial legend reading LVDOVVICS IMP (Emperor Louis) encircles the design between the beaded circle and the irregular flan edge, opening with a cross pattée. The overall style is characteristic of Carolingian hammered silver coinage, displaying the bold, simple geometry favored under Louis the Pious.

Beschrijving keerzijde A plain cross with equal arms occupies the central field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The four quarters of the cross are left plain, without pellets, distinguishing this face from the obverse. A Latin religious legend encircles the design in the outer field between the beaded circle and the coin's edge, opening with a cross pattée. The inscription XPISTIANA RELIGIO (Christian religion) is rendered in the characteristic Carolingian epigraphic style, with letterforms consistent with early ninth-century imperial workshop production. The reverse legend reflects the religious reform coinage programme initiated under Louis the Pious.
