| Obverse description | Youthful laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in archaic Greek style with finely detailed wavy hair bound by a laurel wreath. The effigy displays characteristic early classical modeling, with a delicate profile and naturalistic facial features. The flan is irregular, as typical of small hammered silver fractions of this period. |

| Reverse description | A stylized laurel branch with symmetrically arranged leaves and a central stem depicted in fine relief, set within a shallow incuse square with dotted borders. The botanical motif is rendered with careful attention to the arrangement of the foliage, with leaves extending laterally from the central stalk. The incuse square technique is characteristic of early Greek coinage from the region of Thrace and Macedonia. |
