Beschrijving voorzijde Veiled bust of the goddess Demeter facing left, depicted in draped fashion with a veil covering her head; she holds two ears of corn and a cornucopia, attributes emblematic of her divine role as goddess of the harvest. The bust is rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Smyrnaean civic coinage of the mid-third century AD. A circular legend surrounds the bust within a beaded border. The overall composition is characteristic of the high artistic standards maintained by the Smyrna mint during the Gordian III period.

Beschrijving keerzijde Amazon Smyrna, the eponymous founder of the city, standing left in full figure, clad in short chiton and chlamys; she holds a patera in her extended right hand and a double axe (labrys) and pelta (crescent shield) in her left, with the chlamys draped over her arm. At her feet to the left appears a ship's prow, symbolising Smyrna's maritime prominence. The figure is rendered with confident provincial workmanship, and the composition underscores Smyrna's civic pride and mythological heritage. A circular magistrate's legend occupies the field surrounding the figure.
