| Obverse description | Turreted and draped bust of Tyche facing right, wearing a mural crown with multiple battlements, her hair loosely arranged with curling locks falling to the neck. The portrait is rendered in the Hellenistic style typical of civic bronze coinage from Cilicia, occupying the full field of the flan. No legend is present on the obverse. |

| Reverse description | Nude male figure of Hermes standing facing, head turned slightly to the right, holding a caduceus in his left hand and extending his right arm outward. A Greek civic legend in two columns flanks the figure on either side, identifying the issuing city of Corycus and the magistrates responsible for the issue. The style is characteristic of late Hellenistic civic bronze coinage from Cilicia. |
