The holotype of Coprinites is a lone fruiting body without any associated structures and a partly disarticulated stipe preserved in a piece of clear yellow amber approximately 9–6 millimetres (0.35–0.24 in) and weight 0.5 grams (0.018 oz).The pileus is 3.5 millimetres (0.14 in) in diameter and has a convex shape sporting a small central depression.
