| Obverse description | Draped and armored bust of Sigismund III Vasa facing right, wearing a crown, within a beaded border. The royal effigy is rendered in a typical late Renaissance hammered style, with the king's collar and mantle visible below the truncation. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, identifying the monarch by name and title. The field is plain and the coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan of hammered coinage. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a three-line inscription occupying the central field, reading GROS ARG TRIP REG POLONI, identifying the denomination as a silver triple groat of the Kingdom of Poland. Above the legend, the Roman numeral III denotes the value, surmounted by the crowned Vasa dynastic shield flanked by two rampant lions. The date is split in the lower field, with the mint mark L (for Lublin) interposed between the numerals 15 and 98, serving as the mint identifier. A beaded border encircles the entire design. |
