Beschrijving voorzijde Facing head of Athena rendered in archaic style, shown in three-quarter view turned slightly to the left, wearing a crested Attic helmet with incised linear decoration on the bowl. The facial features are rendered with characteristic early Classical simplicity, with a prominent eye and strong jawline. The helmet crest rises prominently above the head, its incised striations suggesting individual plumes or a horsehair crest. To the right of the head, a small boar's head is visible in profile, serving as an additional civic emblem of Methymna. The overall design is compact and finely executed for a coin of such diminutive size.

Beschrijving keerzijde An owl stands in profile facing right, rendered in the archaic style characteristic of Lesbian coinage of this period. The bird is depicted with a large rounded head, a prominent frontal eye indicated by a circular incuse, and folded wings with incised feather detail. The owl is surrounded by a border of small pellets arranged in a near-complete circle, framing the design within the small flan. Below the owl, a small crescent or additional symbol is discernible in the lower field. The reverse design echoes Athenian iconographic influence while remaining distinctly local in execution.
