| Obverse description | Facing head of Silenos (or a bearded deity), rendered in archaic style with pronounced frontal features, a broad bushy beard, and flowing hair or wreath-like headdress. The face is depicted with deeply modeled eyes and a wide nose, characteristic of central Italian aes grave artistic conventions. The surface of the large cast flan shows natural granular texture typical of heavy bronze issues of this period. |

| Reverse description | Two figures, possibly Dioscuri or combatant warriors, engaged in a dynamic scene, shown in profile moving to the right. The figures are rendered in a bold, schematic style consistent with early Italian aes grave coinage. The mint abbreviation HAT appears in the field below or between the figures, identifying the issuing city of Hatria. The irregular, thick flan and heavily cast relief are characteristic of the large-denomination bronze coinage of this region and period. |
