Beschrijving voorzijde Bare head of Dionysus (Bacchus) facing right, wreathed with ivy and adorned with a diadem, long wavy hair falling behind the neck in characteristic Hellenistic style. The effigy is rendered with fine engraving, the facial features conveying a youthful, idealized character. The entire design is enclosed within a wreath border — likely of laurel or ivy leaves — that frames the field and serves as the outer boundary of the die. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse. The overall composition reflects the Italic artistic tradition adapted from Hellenistic coinage prototypes.

Beschrijving keerzijde A charging bull, symbol of the Italian confederate cause, attacks and gores a she-wolf (symbol of Rome) to the right, rendered in dynamic and forceful style conveying the military and political defiance of the Social War allies. An Oscan control-mark appears above the main device in the field. In the exergue, the Oscan legend VITELLIÚ — the Oscan form of 'Italia' — is inscribed in the Old Italic script, proclaiming the aspirations of the confederate state. The reverse is bordered by a ring of dots. The composition is a powerful political statement, deliberately contrasting the Italic bull with the Roman wolf.
