Beschrijving voorzijde Melqart, the patron deity of Tyre, depicted riding right upon a hippocampus — a mythical sea-horse with a scaled fish tail — above waves rendered as a double exergual line. The god is shown bearded and helmeted, wearing a short chiton, with a bow slung over his shoulder and holding the reins in his left hand. The composition is framed by a beaded border and executed in the bold, deeply-cut relief characteristic of Phoenician engraving of the Persian period.

Beschrijving keerzijde An owl standing three-quarters facing to the right, rendered in the distinctive Phoenician style, with large globular eyes and detailed feathering visible on the wings and breast. To the left stands an Egyptian crook sceptre (heqat), a symbol of authority, and to the right a Phoenician inscription. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. The composition closely parallels Athenian iconographic conventions but reinterprets them within a Phoenician religious and political context.
