| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, depicted in the Greco-Iberian artistic tradition. The goddess wears a crested Corinthian-style helmet, with flowing hair visible beneath. The facial features are rendered in low relief with characteristic provincial workmanship. The Iberian legend 'eba' appears in the lower field. The flan shows characteristic irregularities consistent with hammered bronze coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | Pegasus, the winged horse, galloping to the right with wings prominently spread, rendered in dynamic low relief. A wreath appears above the figure, serving as a decorative and honorific element. Below the exergual line, the Iberian legend 'untikesken' identifying the issuing community of Untikesken (modern Empúries region) is inscribed in the Levantine Iberian script. The overall composition reflects strong Hellenistic influence mediated through the Greco-Iberian cultural milieu of the northeastern Iberian Peninsula. |
