| Obverse description | Bearded head of Zeus Ammon facing right, rendered in high relief with boldly modeled features. The deity wears a wreath of laurel or grain across the brow, with the characteristic ram's horn of Ammon curling behind the ear. The hair flows in thick, naturalistic locks behind the neck, and the beard is rendered with crisp, deeply cut lines in the Hellenistic style. The field is plain, with no legend. |

| Reverse description | Eagle standing to the right with wings partially raised, depicted in a bold, stylized Hellenistic manner with strong modelling of the plumage. The bird's head is turned slightly forward, with a pronounced hooked beak. The Greek ethnic legend ΑΦΥΤΑΙ is arranged in the field around the eagle, with individual letters distributed to the left and right of the main device. The composition fills the flan, with the eagle occupying the central field. |
