| Obverse description | Bare head of Mercury facing right, wearing a winged petasus; a caduceus is visible over the left shoulder. A contracted Iberian-Latin inscription appears to the right of the effigy in the field. The portrait is rendered in a provincial Hispanico-Roman style characteristic of the mid-second century BC Baetican mint series, with a plain beaded border surrounding the design. |

| Reverse description | A boar advancing to the right, rendered in robust relief with bristled spine and raised snout, occupying the central field. A crescent with upward-pointing horns appears above the animal in the upper field. The civic legend is divided, with the abbreviated mint name inscribed above and below the boar; a beaded border frames the entire design. The composition reflects the characteristic Iberian Hispanic bronze coinage convention of associating the boar symbol with local civic identity. |
