Obverse description Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in archaic Greek style with finely detailed hair bound by a laurel wreath, the locks arranged in relief across the crown and falling in a stylized mass at the nape. The youthful facial features are depicted with a smooth cheek, pronounced eye socket, and slightly parted lips characteristic of late Classical Asia Minor coinage. The effigy occupies the full field of the flan, with no legend or border present.

The animal is depicted with alert posture and naturalistic musculature within a shallow incuse square. The Greek ethnic legend NEAN (abbreviated form of NEANDREON) is distributed around the ram in the field, with individual letters placed in the upper left, upper right, and lower right areas of the die.
