| Obverse description | Forepart of a goat facing right, rendered in a bold, archaic style typical of Cilician civic coinage of the fourth century BC. The animal's head is turned to face the viewer frontally, with a large schematic eye, curving horns, and a bearded muzzle rendered with incised detail. The body terminates at the haunches, with the legs visible below. The design occupies the full flan with no legend or border. |

| Reverse description | A stag or deer standing to the right in profile, depicted in a stylized, energetic manner characteristic of Cilician satrapal and civic issues of the fourth century BC. The animal's antlers are prominently rendered with radiating tines, and the body is shown in a walking or prancing pose with all four legs visible. Aramaic letters appear to the left in the field, serving as an ethnic or abbreviated legend. The design fills the irregularly shaped flan with no exergual line. |
