| Obverse description | Central device featuring a heraldic lily mounted upon a rafter, flanked by three small six-petaled rosettes positioned to the right, left, and below the rafter. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded torse border interspersed with lines, characteristic of the bracteate-influenced Pfennig coinage of the Carinthian region. The design is executed in the late medieval hammered tradition, with slight flan irregularity typical of the period. |

| Reverse description | An eagle displayed facing upward in heraldic convention, rendered in the bold, simplified style characteristic of late 13th to early 14th century Carinthian coinage. The design is bounded by two concentric circular lines forming the border of the coin field. Rosettes and annulets are distributed within the inscription area between the border lines and the central eagle motif, filling the field in the manner typical of regional Pfennig issues of this era. |
