| Obverse description | Facing head of Athena, slightly turned to the right, wearing a triple-crested Attic helmet; the facial features rendered in the archaic-influenced style characteristic of Ionian bronzes of the late Classical period. The helmet's cheek-guards frame the goddess's face, and curling locks of hair are visible beneath the rim on either side. |

| Reverse description | Ram standing to the right in the field, rendered with compact, naturalistic modelling typical of Klazomenian civic bronzes; a fly depicted before the ram in the right field serves as a secondary type or control symbol. A partial Greek inscription appears along the upper border of the reverse field, referencing the issuing city. |
