Obverse description Helmeted head of Athena in right profile, wearing a crested Attic helmet adorned with a crest and decorative elements. The facial features are rendered in archaic-transitional style characteristic of Cilician coinage of the early fourth century BC, with a prominent nose and defined jawline. The flan is irregular and compact, typical of small fractional silver coinage of the period.

Reverse description Laureate head of Apollo Sarpedonios facing right, with a wreath of laurel encircling the hair and delicate facial features rendered in the local Cilician style. The bust is bare, with softly modeled contours and a calm, idealized expression. The field is plain and the flan edges are irregular, consistent with the hammered technique and small module of this fractional issue.
