| Obverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, a stylized crowned bust facing, rendered in the primitive Romanesque manner characteristic of Austrian bracteate-influenced deniers. The crown is depicted with prominent points or fleurs, and the shoulders of the figure extend laterally into the field. Small cross-like ornaments are scattered in the field around the bust. A partially legible legend in debased Latin characters runs along the outer border of the coin. |

| Reverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, a rampant lion or stylized animal figure facing left, rendered in a schematic Romanesque style typical of 12th-century Austrian coinage from the Krems mint. The creature's body is composed of bold, deeply struck relief lines. Fragments of a peripheral legend in debased Latin characters appear around the outer border, partially obscured by the irregular flan edge. |
