Beschrijving voorzijde Two male facing heads side by side, rendered in high relief in the distinctive archaic-influenced style characteristic of Istrian coinage. The right-facing head is inverted, its features depicted with pronounced plasticity including almond-shaped eyes, full lips, and flowing hair with a central top-knot or bun. The left head is shown upright, youthful and clean-shaven, adorned with a leafy wreath, its face rendered en face with finely modeled features. Both heads share the field without a border legend, occupying the full flan in a bold and striking composition. This unusual paired-heads motif is a hallmark of Istrian silver coinage and is thought to reference the Dioskouroi or local river deities.

Beschrijving keerzijde An eagle displayed with spread wings, shown in left profile, standing upon and grasping a dolphin with its talons, the dolphin arched beneath the bird in a dynamic composition. The eagle's head is turned downward toward its prey, with detailed feather work visible across the wings and body. The ethnic legend IΣTPIH arcs across the upper field in bold archaic Greek letters. A magistrate's monogram or control mark appears in the lower right field, with the letter Θ visible to the right and K below, serving as mint control symbols. The overall design is rendered with confident, deeply struck relief typical of fourth-century BC Pontic Greek mint production.
