| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet adorned with a prominent fore-crest and decorated cheekpieces. The goddess's facial features are rendered with fine archaic naturalism, the open cheekpiece revealing her profile. A small owl is depicted on the bowl of the helmet. The magistrate's control mark ΛE appears in the field. |

| Reverse description | A man-faced bull advancing to the right, its bovine body rendered in confident relief with musculature carefully articulated. The bull's head bears a fully human bearded male face in three-quarter view, a characteristic Campanian iconographic type evoking a river deity or local divinity. The ethnic legend NΩΛAIΩN arches above in Greek characters, with the magistrate's control mark ΛE placed in the exergue beneath the bull's hooves. |
