| Obverse description | Head of Athena facing left, wearing a Attic helmet with a raised crest; three pellets visible beneath the chin in the field. The portrait is rendered in a bold archaic-influenced style characteristic of fourth-century Cilician silver coinage, with hair curling onto the neck below the helmet's cheek guard. |

| Reverse description | A lion walking to the right in profile, depicted with its head turned to face the viewer frontally, mane rendered with fine incised lines, tail curled upward over its back. Above the lion, two Aramaic letters appear in the upper field, likely constituting a civic or magistrate abbreviation. The design is set within a plain circular border, with the lion rendered in a compact, stylized manner typical of Achaemenid-period Cilician civic coinage. |
