| Beschrijving voorzijde | Hare springing to right in high relief, depicted in full gallop with elongated body and outstretched limbs, set within a beaded border. In the lower field, the letter Lambda (Λ) appears as a mint control mark to the left, accompanied by a scallop shell to the right. The composition is dynamic and characteristic of the fine engraving tradition of Sicilian mint workshops of the late fifth century BC. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The retrograde ethnic inscription ΜΕΣ, an abbreviation for Messana, is displayed in bold Greek letters at the center of the field, reading from right to left as was occasionally employed in archaic and early classical Sicilian coinage. The legend is enclosed within a neatly rendered olive wreath, its branches tied at the right with a ribbon, the individual leaves rendered in a stylized but naturalistic manner. The wreath occupies the full available field, its robust execution being a hallmark of Messanan silver coinage of this period. |
