Aversbeschreibung	Highly stylized and barbarized effigy of the deified Alexander the Great facing right, derived from the Lysimachos stater prototype. The head is rendered in a bold Celtic-Scythian artistic idiom, with schematized curvilinear hair depicted as a series of pellets and comma-shaped locks arranged around the crown and nape. A diadem, reduced to a geometric angular band, encircles the head above the brow. The facial features — eye, nose, and chin — are rendered in a pronounced, abstracted manner characteristic of Celto-Scythian die engraving. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with the hand-struck hammered technique employed by steppe and northern Black Sea region workshops.

Reversbeschreibung	Highly stylized and barbarized rendering of Athena Nikephoros seated left, closely derived from the Lysimachos stater type but heavily degenerated in the Celto-Scythian tradition. The seated figure retains vestiges of the original iconographic program — spear, shield, and Nike — though these elements are reduced to abstract linear and pellet forms. The letter N appears to the inner left of the figure. A trident symbol is placed in the exergue to the left. The flanking legends, originally reading BASILEOS LYSIMAXOU on the Lysimachos prototype, have degenerated entirely into a series of hash marks and pseudo-letters, reflecting the non-literate copying tradition of the issuing population.
