Obverse description Bare male head facing right, rendered in a Hellenistic Iberian style, with curly hair and a fibula-fastened mantle visible at the truncation. The portrait is boldly modeled with pronounced facial features typical of Cessetani coinage. A Iberian symbol or mark appears to the left of the bust in the field.

Reverse description Forepart of the winged horse Pegasus in flight to the right, with outstretched wings prominently rendered and forelegs extended. An Iberian Levantine legend runs along the periphery of the flan. The design is characteristic of the Cessetani mint at Tarraco and reflects the strong Greco-Roman iconographic influence prevalent in northeastern Hispanian coinage of the late 2nd century BC.
