| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Athena facing right, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, the crest rendered with fine radiating lines. The drapery is indicated by incised folds at the shoulder. The portrait is rendered in the provincial Roman style characteristic of Athenian civic coinage of the third century AD, with no surrounding legend on the obverse. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Triptolemus, the mythological hero of the Eleusinian Mysteries, shown standing or seated in a winged chariot drawn to the left by two serpents. He holds a corn ear in his outstretched right hand and a second corn ear in his left, symbolising his role as the divine disseminator of agriculture. The scene is a canonical type of Athenian civic bronze coinage and reflects the city's close association with the cult of Demeter and Persephone at Eleusis. |
