| Obverse description | Draped bust of a veiled and turreted female deity facing right, likely a personification of Tyche or a local city goddess, wearing a stephane or mural crown with radiating battlements atop a veil that falls behind the neck. The portrait is rendered in a Hellenistic style with fine facial detail. A faint circular legend appears in the field surrounding the bust. |

| Reverse description | Two crossed cornucopiae (double cornucopia), their mouths emitting fruit and grain, arranged saltire-fashion in the center of the field. A circular Greek legend surrounds the central device within a border, reading ΖΕΦΥΡΙΤΩΝ or similar civic ethnic. The composition is typical of Hellenistic civic bronze coinage of the eastern Mediterranean, with the cornucopiae symbolizing abundance. |
