| Obverse description | Head of Zeus-Ammon facing slightly left, depicted with the characteristic ram's horn curling behind the ear, rendered in low relief in the archaic Greek provincial style. The facial features, though worn, retain the broad forehead and strong jaw associated with the syncretic deity. The field is plain and unlettered. |

| Reverse description | A coiled serpent depicted in profile moving to the right, its body rendered in a series of overlapping loops characteristic of Aeolian civic bronze coinage. A five-pointed star (pentagram) appears to the right of the serpent in the field, serving as a civic symbol of Pitane. The composition is set within a plain, unlettered field with no exergue line. |
