| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the local Ibero-Roman style with short ringlets framing the face and a laurel wreath clearly visible. The effigy is depicted with a draped truncation and characteristic provincial workmanship. A dotted border encircles the flan. The Latin legend NIG OBVL is distributed in the field on either side of the portrait, reading left and right of the bust respectively, referencing the magistrate and the mint city of Obulco. |

| Reverse description | A plough depicted facing right dominates the central field, with a prominent ear of wheat also oriented to the right overlying or flanking the plough beam, and a yoke rendered below. Small pellets are scattered in the field as decorative or separating elements. The design reflects the agricultural character and prosperity of the Obulco region, executed in a bold, schematic Ibero-Roman engraving style. The flan is irregular and the field is plain without additional legend. |
