Beschrijving voorzijde Heavily degraded field bearing the vestigial remains of a stylised wreath or beaded ring motif, characteristic of the Early Whaddon Chase series. The design, derived ultimately from the laureate head of Apollo on Macedonian staters, has been reduced to an abstract arrangement of pellets, curved lines, and beaded elements. The gold wash is largely lost to corrosion, exposing the base bronze core beneath. The flan is irregular and exhibits the uneven surface typical of a crudely struck contemporary counterfeit. No legible inscription is present.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays the highly schematised remains of a disjointed horse motif, consistent with the Whaddon Chase type, accompanied by fragmentary pellet or rosette ornaments in the field. The design is poorly executed relative to the official prototype, with degraded and blundered die-work indicative of counterfeit manufacture. The horse's body and limbs are rendered as abstract linear elements, barely distinguishable through heavy surface corrosion. Traces of the gold plating survive in recessed areas of the design. No charioteer or wheel elements are clearly discernible on this example.
