| Beschrijving voorzijde | A hare springing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in archaic Greek style with compact, rounded forms. The animal is depicted in mid-leap, with its forelegs extended forward and hindquarters raised, conveying vigorous motion. A beaded or granular border encircles the design, framing the type within the irregular flan. The hare was a civic emblem of Messana, referencing the city's natural environment and local coinage traditions. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The three Greek letters MES, an abbreviation of MESSANA, are boldly rendered in archaic Greek script and occupy the central field. The inscription is enclosed within a dotted border that follows the irregular outline of the flan. The letters are large relative to the flan size and are executed in a plain, incuse or relief style consistent with early Sicilian coinage. The simple typology reflects the city's early monetary production and its assertion of civic identity through epigraphy. |
