| Obverse description | Draped bust of Sarapis facing right, wearing the characteristic modius (kalathos) atop his head. The bust is rendered in the typical provincial style of Phrygia, with flowing drapery visible at the shoulder. The field is plain, with no visible legend on this side due to the coin's worn condition. |

| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing, his body shown in a slightly three-quarter pose with robes draped about the lower figure. He holds his characteristic serpent-entwined staff (kerykeion of Asclepius) in his right hand, the serpent coiling upward along the staff. The encircling Greek legend naming the Prymnessians runs around the periphery of the field. |
