Obverse description Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in archaic Greek style with long wavy hair falling behind the neck. The facial features are finely modeled with a straight nose and slightly parted lips. The wreath of laurel is visible across the brow. The flan is small and irregular, characteristic of early Thracian bronze coinage.

Reverse description A panther crouching to the right with its head turned to face the viewer, rendered with compact musculature and a stylized mane. The animal is depicted with forepaws extended forward in a resting pose. The ethnic inscription NAΣΙ appears in the upper field above the panther, identifying the issuing community of Nesos. The design fills the flan in a bold, summary style typical of 4th century BC Thracian bronzes.
