| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, depicted in fine Hellenistic style. The goddess wears a crested Corinthian-type helmet adorned with a prominent cheek guard and a large curling crest, rendered with careful detail. The facial features are well modelled, conveying a serene, classical expression. No legend appears in the field. |

| Reverse description | Nike standing facing, her large open wings spread symmetrically to either side, rendered in dynamic Hellenistic style. The winged goddess is depicted in a slightly forward-leaning posture, with drapery falling about her lower body. At her feet crouches a ram, serving as a subordinate device. A partial Greek legend, partially visible as ΣΥΡΑΚΟΣΙΩΝ, appears in the upper field around the figure. |
