Beschrijving voorzijde Bull standing left with head turned back to the right, rendered in high relief with naturalistic musculature. The ethnic inscription ΠΑ ΡΙ appears in Greek characters beneath the bull's body. In the lower field, a lobster (crayfish) is depicted facing left, serving as a secondary symbol closely associated with the city of Parion. The composition fills the flan with characteristic Mysian artistic confidence of the fourth century BC.

Opschrift voorzijde ΠΑ ΡΙ
Beschrijving keerzijde Full-face gorgoneion depicted in high relief, centrally positioned and filling the entire die. The Gorgon's face displays the characteristic apotropaic features: wide-open staring eyes, a broad flat nose, prominent cheekbones, and an open mouth with protruding tongue and fangs visible between the lips. The hair is rendered as intertwined serpents coiled across the forehead, with a row of pellets forming a diadem-like band above the brow. The deeply modelled, confrontational design is a hallmark of Parian coinage of this period.
