| Obverse description | Diademed head of Artemis facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with fine detail in the hair and diadem. The portrait occupies the central field of the flan, with the goddess depicted in a youthful, idealized manner characteristic of Macedonian civic coinage of the period. The surface shows natural wear consistent with ancient circulation. |

| Reverse description | An upright quiver depicted centrally in the field, flanked by monograms to the left, serving as mint or magistrate control marks. The ethnic legend ΘEΣΣAΛO-NIKAEON is distributed in the field or around the periphery, identifying the issuing city of Thessaloniki. The design is typical of Macedonian civic bronze issues, with bold, functional imagery and epigraphy in clear Greek characters. |
