Obverse description Helmeted head of Juno Sospita facing right, wearing the characteristic goat-skin headdress with horns visible above the brow, the hide's scalp rendered in beaded detail falling behind the neck. A branch is depicted to the left of the effigy in the field. The portraiture follows Roman Republican stylistic conventions, with strong facial features and a bold relief typical of Eraviscian imitative coinage.
Obverse script Latin

Reverse description A female figure stands to the left, extending her right hand to feed a serpent rearing before her. To the right of the composition, four small pellets are arranged around a larger central pellet, likely serving as a control mark or decorative element. A pseudo-legend appears in the exergue, imitating Roman Republican lettering but rendered in a non-meaningful barbarous script, reflecting the imitative nature of this Eraviscian tribal issue.
