| Beschrijving voorzijde | A melon or apple rendered in high relief at center, depicted in frontal view with characteristic segmented lobes clearly articulated, the fruit shown with a short stem at top. The type constitutes a visual pun on the island's name (Melos), a numismatic conceit common in archaic Greek coinage. The design is set within a plain, slightly irregular field characteristic of hand-struck Cycladic silver coinage of the late fifth century BC. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A triskeles motif composed of three curved legs radiating from a large central pellet, rendered in incuse relief within a dotted border circle, all contained within a shallow incuse square or circle. The legend MAΛICN appears around the triskeles, identifying the issuing city of Melos. The incuse treatment of the reverse is typical of archaic and early classical Greek hammered coinage technique, reflecting both die-cutting conventions and the use of a punch. |
