Beschrijving voorzijde The Phoenician deity Melkart is depicted in heroic profile riding a hippocamp to the right, his extended left hand grasping a strung bow while his right hand holds the reins. The hippocamp is rendered with detailed musculature, its equine forepart transitioning into a fish-tail body. Beneath the creature, stylized wave lines appear above a dolphin swimming to the right, symbolizing the sea domain central to Tyrian iconography. The scene is executed in fine archaic relief characteristic of Phoenician die-cutting of the early 4th century BC.

Beschrijving keerzijde An owl is depicted standing to the right with head turned to face the viewer, rendered in confident, detailed relief with feathering clearly articulated across the body and wings. To the upper left of the field, an Egyptian crook and flail are placed diagonally, crossed in the background — symbols of divine authority and sovereignty with strong Egyptian cultural influence on Phoenician iconography. The design is contained within a beaded border, and the flat, uncluttered field emphasizes the bold, naturalistic presence of the owl. The composition closely mirrors Athenian artistic conventions while retaining distinctly Phoenician stylistic character.
