| Obverse description | Bare head of Heracles to right, bearded, wearing the lion-skin headdress knotted at the neck, rendered in the archaic provincial style characteristic of Lydian civic bronzes. The portrait is set within a plain field with the Greek magistrate legend partially visible along the right margin. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of small hammered provincial issues of the Antonine period. |

| Reverse description | A stag advancing to the right, depicted in a naturalistic yet stylized manner consistent with civic bronzes of Lydian mints under the Roman Empire. The animal is shown in full stride with head slightly raised, the legend of the city ethnicon distributed around the field. The lower portion of the flan shows traces of a ground line, and the reverse legend includes the notable retrograde rendering of the final two letters ΩΝ. |
