| Obverse description | Central field depicts a standing figure, likely a saint or religious personage, shown frontally in a hieratic pose with hands raised or joined in a gesture of veneration. The figure is rendered in low relief consistent with late medieval hammered coinage. A nimbus or halo is suggested above the head. The surrounding field bears partially legible inscriptions in Latin along the inner border, with the overall style characteristic of Adriatic communal coinage of the 14th–15th centuries. |

| Reverse description | Central field features a standing nimbed figure, likely a holy patron, depicted frontally in a stiff, hieratic style typical of Byzantine-influenced Adriatic civic coinage. The figure appears robed, with arms positioned before the body. A dotted inner border frames the design, outside of which the Latin legend is distributed in two segments across the field. The overall composition is characteristic of the communal follaro issues of Drivast during the 14th to 15th centuries. |
