| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of a youthful male effigy in profile, facing either right or left depending on die variety, with flowing hair rendered in linear style characteristic of medieval hammered coinage. A circular Latin legend runs around the periphery of the field. The portrait is rendered in a somewhat schematic, provincial style typical of Ragusan copper issues of the 14th and early 15th centuries. |

| Reverse description | A large Gothic letter R positioned centrally in the field, orientated to either the left or right depending on die variety, surrounded by four irregularly placed stars in the quarters of the field. The composition is simple and emblematic, serving as a clear identifier of the issuing authority — the Republic of Ragusa (Dubrovnik). The design is typical of the minimalist heraldic style employed on Ragusan base-metal coinage of the medieval period. |
