Obverse description Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a Corinthian-style helmet adorned with a crest and laurel branch; the goddess is depicted in profile with fine archaic-influenced modeling typical of late Athenian civic bronze coinage. The bust is draped, with details of the helmet cheek-guard visible. The field is plain, with no surrounding legend.

Reverse description Forepart of a bull facing left, rendered in bold relief within the central field, a design closely associated with Athenian bronze civic issues of the Hellenistic period. The ethnic legend ΑΘΗΝΑΙΩΝ is disposed around the central device, reading partially to the left and right. The coin is struck within a plain border consistent with hammered Athenian bronze coinage of this era.
