| Obverse description | Imperial orb surmounted by a cross, set within a cusped quatrefoil or trefoil frame at the center of the field. A beaded inner circle surrounds the central device, with the circumferential legend reading .MAXIMILIANVS.ROMA.REX. in Gothic-style Latin lettering, separated by cross and pellet stops. The overall design reflects the late medieval hammered goldgulden tradition of the Holy Roman Empire. |

| Reverse description | The Virgin Mary standing facing, nimbed and robed, holding the Christ Child, both enveloped by radiating flames forming a mandorla. Below the central figure, the quartered arms of Eberhard von Königstein are displayed as the mint master's mark. The surrounding legend, divided across two lines in the field and along the periphery, identifies the mint city and date. |
