| Obverse description | Armored bust of King Władysław IV Waza facing right, wearing a crown and draped armor with a ruffled collar, set within a beaded inner circle. The royal effigy is rendered in a baroque style typical of mid-17th-century Polish coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait along the outer rim, reading the king's titles and epithets. The field is plain, with the bust occupying the central design area. |

| Reverse description | Elaborate quartered royal coat of arms of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, surmounted by a crowned shield displaying the arms of Poland (white eagle), Lithuania (mounted knight), Sweden (three crowns and a lion), and the Vasa dynasty sheaf, all set within a beaded inner circle. A large crown tops the central shield. The surrounding Latin legend along the outer rim records the mint date and royal titles. The overall composition reflects the complex heraldic tradition of the Vasa dynasty's Polish coinage. |
