| Beschrijving voorzijde | A lion striding to the right occupies the central field, depicted in a vigorous Hellenistic style characteristic of Pontic civic coinage. The feline is rendered with considerable anatomical detail, its mane indicated by stylized curling lines and its tail raised. A star appears above the lion's back, a symbol frequently associated with Mithradates VI and his royal propaganda. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show a dark green patina consistent with prolonged burial. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Nike, goddess of victory, stands facing left, depicted in draped attire and holding a wreath aloft in her right hand and a palm branch in her left. She is shown crowning a trophy or cult object set upon a base, the composition conveying Pontic military triumphalism. A spear or sceptre is visible to the lower left of the figure. The ethnic legend ΑΜΙΣΟΥ is inscribed below in Greek characters, identifying the issuing city of Amisos. The overall style is competent Hellenistic civic work with moderate relief. |
