| Obverse description | Forepart of Pegasus in right profile, rendered in archaic Greek style with characteristic wing feathers depicted in relief, the musculature of the horse's chest and neck boldly articulated. The winged horse occupies the full field of the flan, consistent with small denomination coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | Forepart of a goat in right profile, rendered with compact archaic detail within a roughly square incuse depression. The animal's head, neck, and forelegs are depicted with stylized musculature, the incuse square framing the device in the manner typical of early fifth-century BC Karian civic coinage. |
