| Obverse description | Helmeted figure of Athena standing left in full relief, extending her right hand to present a Nike figurine, while grasping an upright spear and a large round shield in her left arm. The goddess is depicted in long garments with the Athenian owl-crested helmet rendered in the local Pamphylian style. A pomegranate — the civic emblem of Side — appears prominently in the left field, serving as a mint symbol. The composition is rendered in the bold, high-relief hammered tradition characteristic of 4th-century BC Pamphylian civic coinage. |

| Reverse description | Apollo standing left in full figure, his right hand extended over a flaming altar as he performs a sacrificial libation, while holding a long sceptre and a laurel branch in his left hand. A crow — a bird sacred to Apollo — is depicted at his feet near the base of the altar. A partial inscription in the archaic Pamphylian alphabet appears to the right of the figure, though the legend is incompletely legible due to the irregular flan. The scene reflects the strong Apolline religious tradition of the Pamphylian region during the 4th century BC. |
