| Beschrijving voorzijde | A bull in bold relief, depicted in a dynamic butting posture facing right, shown in full profile with all four legs visible and firmly planted on a ground line. The animal's muscular haunches and lowered head convey forceful movement, characteristic of the archaic Ionian artistic style. The flan surface surrounding the bull is smooth and unmarked, with the figure occupying the majority of the oval electrum flan. The modelling of the bull's body, with carefully rendered striations along the hindquarters and naturalistic anatomy, reflects the accomplished die-cutting associated with early Ionian coinage of the sixth century BC. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large central rectangular incuse punch flanked on each side by a smaller square incuse punch, forming a tripartite incuse design. The punches are decorated with an arrangement of pellets and irregular incised strokes distributed across their recessed surfaces, a hallmark of early electrum coinage produced under the Lydo-Milesian weight standard. The incuse impressions were created by the hammering of punches into the plain reverse of the flan during striking. The overall composition is asymmetric and characteristic of the transitional period between uninscribed punched reverses and more developed reverse types in archaic Greek coinage. |
