| Beschrijving voorzijde | Head of the city nymph Sinope facing left, her hair elaborately bound up in a sphendone headdress. An aplustre (stern ornament of a ship) is depicted before her face in the field, serving as a civic emblem emblematic of Sinope's maritime prominence. The portrait is rendered in the fine Greek style characteristic of 4th century BC Pontic coinage, with carefully delineated facial features and flowing hair. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A sea eagle, rendered with finely engraved feathering on its spread wings and scaled body, perches upon and grasps a dolphin facing left, the dolphin's body arching beneath the bird's talons in a dynamic composition. The eagle's head is turned downward toward its prey, conveying predatory tension in a motif emblematic of Sinopean coinage. An Aramaic inscription appears in the lower exergual area of the field, reading the magistrate name Sysinas, reflecting the Persian satrapal influence present in Pontic coinage of this period. |
