Obverse description A stag in full gallop to the right, rendered in high relief against a granular field. The animal is depicted with its legs extended in a dynamic leaping pose, with antlers clearly articulated. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of early Arcadian silver coinage of the Classical period. No legend or inscription is present on this side.

Reverse description Incuse square containing the archaic Greek letter Epsilon (Ε), rendered in bold strokes and flanked on either side by a dotted border forming an inner frame within the incuse rectangle. The incuse design is deeply struck and well-centered on the irregular flan, consistent with the hammered coinage technique of Archaic and early Classical Arcadia. The Epsilon serves as an abbreviation for the ethnic of Psophis.
