Obverse description	Bare-headed, draped and cuirassed bust of Philip II facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the front, with paludamentum visible over the cuirass. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features of the Caesar in the provincial die-cutting tradition of the Phrygian mint. The Greek legend runs around the periphery of the flan, identifying the subject by name and title.

Reverse description	The goddess Homonoia, personification of civic concord, stands in full figure facing left, clad in a long chiton and himation. She extends her right hand to hold a patera over a small lighted altar at her feet, while her left arm supports a large cornucopia, symbol of abundance and prosperity. The reverse type alludes to the neokorate status of Laodicea ad Lycum, with the civic legend distributed around the field in Greek characters.
