| Obverse description | Two confronted animal heads or protomes, each surmounted by a four-pronged crest, facing one another across the central field; a pellet and a trefoil occupy the space between them. The design is rendered in a bold, stylized manner characteristic of late 13th- to early 14th-century Friesacher Pfennig coinage. The flan is irregular in shape, as typical of hammered issues of this period. |

| Reverse description | Depicted in the central field is a schematic eagle or eagle-like figure, rendered in a highly stylized and somewhat ambiguous manner consistent with the die-cutting conventions of Friesacher Pfennig coinage of the late 13th and early 14th centuries. The design is weakly struck and the flan irregular, making precise identification of subsidiary details difficult. The field surrounding the figure is plain and unadorned. |
