| Obverse description | Crowned ruler depicted seated facing, wearing a draped and decorated garment, holding regalia in both hands. The figure is rendered in the Romanesque style typical of 13th-century Austrian bracteate-influenced pfennigs, with stylized drapery folds and a prominent crown visible above the head. A crescent or curved architectural element frames the upper left field. The overall composition is set within an irregular flan with a plain border. |

| Reverse description | Two facing busts depicted in profile, separated by a central vertical column of pellets, likely representing two ecclesiastical or secular figures of authority associated with the Gutenwerth mint. Each figure wears a rounded headdress or mitre, and the composition is enclosed within a double concave arc border typical of Carinthian regional pfennigs of the 13th century. The design is rendered in low relief consistent with hammered silver coinage of the period. |
