Beschrijving voorzijde Bare laureate head of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of the Coan mint, with the laurel wreath clearly delineated around the brow. The portrait displays the characteristic mature, bearded effigy of the emperor as conventionally represented on issues of the Conventus of Halicarnassus. The surrounding Greek legend reads ΑΥ ΚΑΙΣ(ΑΡ) ΑΔΡΙ(ΑΝΟΣ) ΑΝΤΩΝΙΝΟΣ, identifying the emperor with his full titular formula. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show heavy patination consistent with prolonged burial, obscuring some fine detail of the portrait.

Beschrijving keerzijde Hera standing in a biga drawn by two peacocks, advancing to the left, holding in her right hand a patera and in her left hand a long sceptre. The composition reflects the importance of the Heraion sanctuary on the island of Cos and the cult of Hera as a principal civic deity of the Coans. The peacocks, sacred to Hera, are rendered facing left in the yoke of the biga, lending the scene a distinctly divine and ceremonial character. The ethnic legend ΚΩΙΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority. The flan is broad but irregular, consistent with provincial bronze production of the Antonine period.
