| Obverse description | A stylized peacock displayed in high relief, rendered in the characteristic schematic style of Friesach pfennigs, set within a plain inner circle. The bird's plumage is indicated by pellets and curved strokes, with the head and spread tail feathers clearly articulated against the flat field. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, typical of hammered bracteate-style coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | An eagle displayed in high relief, surrounded by two concentric circles of pearls forming an inner border. The interstices between the pearl circles are decorated with alternating i-shaped (pillar) symbols and rosettes, creating a formal ornamental frame around the central charge. The eagle's wings are spread and its features rendered schematically, consistent with the hammered Friesach pfennig tradition of the late 13th to early 14th century. |
