| Obverse description | Enthroned frontal figure of the Virgin Mary (Theotokos) depicted in Byzantine hierarchical style, seated upon a high-backed throne, wearing a crown and imperial robes. The Virgin holds the Christ Child before her with both hands, the Child rendered in miniature adult form. Partial Cyrillic legend appears in the fields to either side of the central figure, characteristic of medieval Serbian royal coinage. |

The king holds a long sceptre or patriarchal staff in his left hand and raises his right hand in a gesture of benediction or authority. Flanking the throne are partial Cyrillic inscriptions identifying the ruler, rendered in the bold, compressed lettering typical of late 13th to early 14th century Serbian hammered coinage. |
