| Obverse description | Baaltars standing left in dynamic pose, his draped figure rendered in archaic Greek style; his extended right hand proffers an eagle with outspread wings, while his left hand grasps a tall scepter. The deity's robes fall in stylized folds, and the overall composition reflects the Phoenician-Greek artistic fusion characteristic of Cilician coinage of the early fourth century BC. |

| Reverse description | Herakles standing facing with head turned to the right, depicted in the heroic nude convention; his raised right hand brandishes a club while his left arm supports a strung bow, with the Nemean lion skin draped over the forearm. The figure is rendered in a stiff, frontal archaic style typical of early Cilician silver coinage, set within a plain incuse field. |
