| Obverse description | Bare male head facing right, rendered in the Ibero-Punic artistic tradition with schematic facial features. The hair is depicted in a series of irregular raised locks or pellets arranged across the crown and nape, a stylistic convention common to Ilercavonian bronze coinage. The portrait occupies the majority of the flan, with the field left plain. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse. |

| Reverse description | Horse galloping vigorously to the right, rendered in a lively, cursory style characteristic of Iberian provincial bronze issues of the 2nd century BC. The animal's legs are outstretched in full gallop, conveying motion, and the mane is indicated by a series of short strokes. Above the horse, the Iberian legend ABARI is inscribed in Levantine semi-syllabic script, serving as an abbreviated toponym identifying the mint of Abariltur. The composition fills the flan with minimal ground line. |
