Beschrijving voorzijde Two nude wrestlers depicted in the opening stance of a grappling contest, rendered in fine archaic relief. The right-hand figure advances his left leg between his opponent's legs while seizing his adversary's right shoulder with his left hand and grasping his belt with his right hand. The left-hand figure counters by gripping his opponent's right shoulder with his left hand and securing his leg with his right hand. The composition is dynamic and confrontational, filling the flan with energetic tension characteristic of late 5th-century Pamphylian civic coinage. The Greek letter eta (H) appears in the field between the legs of the right-hand wrestler.

Beschrijving keerzijde A slinger strides vigorously to the right, depicted in three-quarter view with both arms raised as he prepares to release his sling-bolt, rendered with considerable anatomical detail typical of Aspendian coinage of this period. A triskeles symbol, with legs running counterclockwise, occupies the left field, serving as a civic emblem of the city. The ethnic abbreviation ΕΣΤ appears in the field, representing an archaic abbreviation of Aspendos rendered in the local Pamphylian variant of the Greek alphabet. The reverse design as a whole reflects the martial character of Aspendian civic identity and the city's pride in its soldiery.
