| Obverse description | Bust of Hera facing right, rendered in profile with curling hair bound at the back, in the archaic-to-classical Greek style typical of Euboian coinage. The goddess's features are rendered in low relief consistent with the hammered bronze fabric of the series. The flan is irregular and somewhat worn, with the effigy occupying the central field. |

| Reverse description | An eagle depicted in full flight, oriented to the right, clutching a writhing serpent firmly in both its talons and beak, a canonical emblem of Chalkis. The composition fills the central field dynamically, with the snake shown in sinuous extension beneath the eagle's body. A secondary symbol appears in the lower field beneath the eagle, partially visible due to the worn surface of the flan. |
