| Obverse description | Forepart of a bull presented in right profile, rendered in low relief within the compact flan. The animal's head and neck are depicted with schematic but expressive modelling, the eye and muzzle clearly articulated. The design occupies the majority of the field, consistent with the archaic Lycian coinage tradition of Kasolaba. |

| Reverse description | Draped female bust facing right, the hair elaborately arranged in curled locks bound with a diadem or wreath, rendered in a style characteristic of late fifth- to early fourth-century BC Lycian coinage. The portrait displays fine modelling of the facial features and a layered hairstyle with tresses falling to the nape. A partial Greek legend appears in the lower field, likely abbreviating the dynastic or civic name of Kasolaba. |
