Obverse description Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with finely curled hair and a wreath of laurel leaves encircling the brow. The portrait occupies the full field of the flan, with the neck truncation visible at the lower edge. A Greek civic legend runs around the periphery, partially visible on the irregular flan.

Reverse description Two confronted ibexes, rearing and facing one another, with a tall cornucopia placed between them in the central field. The animals are rendered in a stylized Hellenistic manner, their forelegs raised as if in heraldic opposition. Beneath the design, a Greek civic inscription identifying the issuing city of Sagalassos is clearly legible, reading ΣΑΓΑ across the lower exergual area.
