| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing left, rendered in archaic Greek style with finely detailed laurel wreath encircling the hair. The facial features are boldly modeled in high relief, with a straight profile and smooth cheek characteristic of 4th-century Troad coinage. The neck is truncated at the lower border of the flan. |

| Reverse description | Seven-stringed lyre depicted facing, with a rounded tortoiseshell body and two upright arms supporting the crossbar, rendered in bold relief at the center of the field. Partial Greek inscription flanks the lyre on either side, partially obscured by the irregular flan edges. The design is characteristic of Apollo-cult civic coinage from the Troad region. |
