Obverse description Male head facing right, rendered in a local Ibero-Roman artistic style with coarse but vigorous relief. The effigy displays curly or wavy hair drawn back from the brow, with facial features including a prominent nose and defined chin visible despite heavy patination and surface wear. No visible legend surrounds the bust. The flan is irregular and the strike is somewhat off-center, characteristic of Hispanic municipal coinage of this period.

Reverse description Pegasus or equine figure in right-facing gallop occupies the central field, rendered in a schematic provincial style with legs extended in full stride. Below the figure, the Iberian (Levantine) legend identifying the mint of Iltirta is inscribed. The design is set within a plain field on an irregular flan, with weak areas of strike consistent with hammered production. The overall composition reflects the typical reverse type of Iltirtan bronze coinage of the early 2nd century BC.
