| Beschrijving voorzijde | A charioteer, rendered in archaic Greek style, drives a biga at a walking pace to the right, holding the reins with both hands. Above the horses, Nike flies right and extends a wreath to crown the nearest horse, a motif emblematic of Sicilian victory coinage. In the exergue, a leaf with fruit serves as a decorative ground element. The composition reflects the high-quality engraving tradition of early classical Sicily. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A hare springs dynamically to the right within a closed laurel wreath, the animal's muscular form rendered with considerable naturalism characteristic of Sicilian die engravers of the early classical period. The legend MEΣΣA appears in the lower field below the hare, with NION inscribed in retrograde above, dividing the ethnic of the Messanians across the field. The laurel wreath border, composed of carefully articulated leaves and berries, frames the entire composition with elegance. |
