| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Pallas Athena facing right, rendered in the Greco-Roman provincial style. The helmet is clearly visible atop the deity's head, with facial features depicted in low relief characteristic of Iberian colonial bronze coinage. A dotted border encircles the design. The magistrates' names appear in the field as the legend C . CA . T . C . O . CAR Q, distributed around the effigy. |

| Reverse description | Pegasus, the winged horse of Greek mythology, advancing briskly to the right with wings raised and forelegs extended in a vigorous stride. A laurel wreath is positioned above the animal's rump, serving as a symbol of civic honour. The city ethnic EMPORI is inscribed in large Latin characters beneath the figure, within the lower exergual area. The scene is enclosed by a dotted border, consistent with the broader Emporitan coinage tradition of blending Greek iconographic motifs with Roman provincial epigraphic conventions. |
