Obverse description Central isosceles cross with pellet ornaments at the arms, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. Four wedge-shaped or arrow-head devices fill the quadrants between the arms of the cross. The circumferential legend reads + PETRVS REX (King Peter), separated by the beaded border, all within an outer beaded rim characteristic of early Hungarian hammered coinage.

Reverse description Isosceles cross with wedge-shaped devices in each quadrant, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The cross arms terminate near the ring, creating a wheel-like composition typical of early Árpád-dynasty deniers. The circumferential legend + PANNONIA appears in Latin capitals within the outer beaded border, referencing the historic Roman province of Pannonia, the heartland of the medieval Hungarian kingdom.
