Beschrijving voorzijde Bare youthful head of Apollo-Carneius facing left, rendered with fine detail in the classical Greek style. The hair is elaborately rendered in thick, flowing curls swept back from the forehead and temples, with a prominent crescent-shaped horn of Ammon rising above the brow, identifying the deity with the Libyan god Ammon. The facial features are idealized, with a straight nose, refined lips, and a strong jawline characteristic of late classical Greek die engraving. The field is otherwise plain, with no surrounding legend.

Beschrijving keerzijde A silphion plant rendered frontally and in full, occupying the entire field, with a tall central stalk rising to a bushy umbellate head at the top, and multiple spreading lateral branches terminating in distinctive globular seed pods on thin stems. The plant is depicted with naturalistic botanical precision, reflecting the iconic status of silphion as the primary commercial product and civic emblem of Cyrene. Flanking the upper portion of the stalk are the Greek letters KYPA, divided across the field. Two monograms appear in the lower field, one to the lower left (KP) and one to the lower right (KE), likely denoting magistrates or mint officials.
