Beschrijving voorzijde Eagle standing to right with head turned back to left, rendered in high relief within a raised circular disc border. The bird is depicted perched upon a tunny fish oriented to the left, a characteristic emblematic device of Kyzikene coinage referencing the city's close association with the tunny fishing trade. The composition is compact and naturalistic in the archaic Greek tradition, with fine detail visible in the wing feathers and the bird's alert posture. The entire device is contained within a smooth, slightly domed field enclosed by the raised rim of the circular flan.

Beschrijving keerzijde Quadripartite incuse square of mill-sail or windmill pattern, formed by four recessed rectangular compartments separated by raised diagonal ridges meeting at a central point, characteristic of the standard reverse type employed on electrum coinage of Kyzikos throughout the fifth and fourth centuries BC. The incuse design, a hallmark of early Greek hammered coinage, is deeply struck and irregular in outline, conforming to the uneven shape of the flan. The four sunken panels show a rough, granular surface texture typical of the hammered electrum fabric. No legend or additional device is present.
