The laurel wreath is clearly delineated atop the youthful, idealized effigy, with delicate facial features including a straight nose and slightly parted lips.

Reverse description A crab depicted frontally in the center of the field, its carapace rendered in bold relief with eight legs splayed symmetrically and two upraised claws flanking the upper field. The Greek letter Alpha (Α) appears above the crab between the claws, serving as a numeral or civic symbol. Below the crab, a harpa (curved sickle-like implement) is depicted horizontally, with the abbreviated civic legend ΠΡΙ inscribed beneath, referencing the issuing city of Priapos in Mysia.
