| Obverse description | Bare head of Hercules facing right, rendered in the Ibero-Roman provincial style, with clearly delineated facial features including a prominent brow and strong jaw. The hair is bound and partially covered by the scalp of the Nemean lion skin, the paws of which are loosely knotted at the neck. The portrait occupies the full field of the flan, with no surrounding legend or border visible. |

| Reverse description | Two stylised ears of wheat or barley depicted in low relief, oriented horizontally across the field and pointing toward the right, serving as the primary emblematic device of the Callet mint. The Latin legend CALLET is inscribed prominently across the central field in bold archaic characters, flanked above and below by the grain stalks. The reverse exhibits the characteristic flat, irregular strike typical of Hispano-Roman bronze coinage of the late second century BC. |
