Obverse description Full-length frontal effigy of a standing bishop facing forward, raising his right hand in benediction. His left hand holds a processional cross staff from which a narrow pennant or vexillum is suspended. The figure is rendered in the flat, hieratic style characteristic of early 13th-century Austrian bracteate-influenced coinage. A partial Latin legend appears in the field surrounding the figure.

Reverse description Above a stylized crenellated wall featuring two arched gates, two busts are depicted frontally side by side — one ecclesiastical (the Archbishop) and one secular (the Duke) — representing the joint authority of the issuing powers. Each bust is surmounted by a small cross. Between the two figures, three pellets and a six-pointed star are visible in the field. The entire design is enclosed within a double beaded border.
