| Beschrijving voorzijde | A Phoenician war-galley with oars extended moves to the left, depicted before a coastal fortress featuring four projecting towers. In the exergue, two lions are positioned back to back in heraldic opposition. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded (dotted) border, a characteristic feature of Sidonian silver coinage of the Persian period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Within a recessed incuse square, a Persian king or royal hero is depicted in right-profile stance, actively engaged in combat with a rearing lion that rises on its hind legs before him. The king grasps the lion with one hand and delivers a downward thrust with the other, evoking the classical Achaemenid royal hunt iconography. The bold, deeply cut relief is typical of Phoenician engraving of the early fourth century BC. |
