| Obverse description | Central motif comprising a tower with crenellated battlements flanked on either side by an upright dragon displayed. The composition is enclosed within a border of torse and a plain line, forming the outer perimeter of the design field. The striking is characteristic of hammered medieval bracteate-style coinage, with typical irregular flan edges. |

| Reverse description | An eagle displayed occupies the central field, rendered in the bold, schematic style typical of Carinthian medieval coinage. The surrounding annular area between two concentric pearl circles is decorated with alternating rings and rosettes forming an ornamental legend band. No inscribed text is present; the decorative elements serve as the primary compositional device in this zone. |
