| Obverse description | Quartered coat of arms of the Archbishopric of Salzburg, surmounted by a bishop's mitre and flanked on either side by two crossed croziers with tasselled cords, all set within a beaded inner circle. The arms display the traditional Salzburg divisions including the rampant lion and the cross. The circular legend surrounding the shield reads MAX GAND D G AR EP SAL SE AP L, identifying the issuing archbishop Max Gandolf von Kuenburg. The square klippe format gives the coin its distinctive diamond shape with plain clipped corners. |

| Reverse description | Enthroned half-length figure of Saint Rupert, patron saint of Salzburg, facing front, vested in episcopal robes and mitre, holding a crozier in his left hand and a salt cellar in his right. The denominational fraction 1/9 appears in a cartouche or shield at the lower center of the design. The circular legend S RVDBERTTVS EPS SALISB surrounds the saint, with the date appearing in the upper field. The composition is contained within a beaded inner circle, consistent with the hammered klippe coinage of the Salzburg mint. |
