| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena in right profile, wearing a Corinthian helmet adorned with a prominent griffin protome on the bowl. The goddess's hair falls in loose waves beneath the helmet rim, and her facial features are rendered in fine Hellenistic style with a straight nose and well-defined eye. The flan is irregular, characteristic of hand-struck ancient coinage from Pamphylia. |

| Reverse description | Nike advancing to the left, her wings spread and drapery in motion, holding a wreath extended forward in her right hand. To the left of the figure, a pomegranate — the civic emblem of Side — is depicted above the Greek initials of the issuing magistrate. The composition follows the standard Sidetan reverse type, with the pomegranate serving as the principal civic badge of the mint city. |
