| Obverse description | Bare-headed draped bust of Ajax (Teukros), facing right, wearing a close-fitting cap (pilos), with fine facial features rendered in Hellenistic style. The bust is set within a dotted border, occupying most of the flan. The portrait exhibits a youthful profile with a prominent nose and chin, consistent with heroic iconography common to Cilician civic bronzes of the early Imperial period. |

| Reverse description | Plain field bearing a four-line Greek inscription naming the issuing dynast and regnal year, arranged centrally across the reverse. The legend reads ΑΙΑΝΤΟΣ ΤΕΥΚΡΟΥ Ε Β, constituting the genitive forms 'of Ajax, of Teukros', followed by the era year designation 'year 2'. The lettering is rendered in neat Greek majuscules typical of Cilician dynastic bronze coinage under Roman oversight during the Augustan period. |
