Obverse description Standing figure of Athena Parthenos facing left, her extended right hand presenting Nike, who crowns the goddess with a wreath; her left hand rests upon a grounded shield set to the right, against which a spear is propped. A pomegranate appears in the left field, an important civic symbol of Side. An uncertain Pamphylian inscription runs along the right field. The figure is rendered in the Classical Greek style characteristic of Sidetan coinage of the mid-fourth century BC.

Reverse description Apollo depicted standing to left in a sacrificial pose, holding a laurel branch in his raised right hand and a phiale in his lowered left hand, from which he pours a libation over a small altar situated to the left. An uncertain Pamphylian inscription occupies the right field. The composition reflects the standard reverse type associated with the silver coinage of Side during the late Classical period, executed in the hammered tradition typical of Pamphylian civic issues.
