| Obverse description | Draped bust of a helmeted female deity facing right, rendered in the local Ibero-Roman artistic tradition; the helmet is clearly visible atop the head, with the hair falling in wavy locks below. The effigy displays archaic provincial workmanship, with broad facial features typical of Hispano-Roman coinage of the 2nd century BC. The field is plain, with no visible legend or inscription. A pellet or small decorative element may appear below the bust on some specimens. |

| Reverse description | A bull charging to the right, rendered in a sturdy, compact style characteristic of Iberian civic coinage of the late Republican period. An Iberian legend in the Levantine semi-syllabic script runs around the periphery of the coin, reading the ethnic name of the mint city Untikesken. A pellet or series of pellets appears in the exergue or field below the bull, serving as a value mark consistent with the semis denomination. The overall engraving, though worn, retains the vigorous, naturalistic treatment of the animal typical of Indigetes coinage. |
