| Beschrijving voorzijde | Europa depicted nude to the waist, seated in three-quarter facing pose turned to the right upon a rocky outcrop, her figure rendered in the flowing Cretan style characteristic of the period. Plane tree branches arch behind her figure, referencing the mythological episode of Zeus and Europa at Gortyna. The composition is boldly modeled in high relief with fine attention to drapery folds below the waist. No legend or inscription appears in the field. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bull depicted in full profile standing to the right, rendered with muscular anatomical detail in the accomplished Late Classical Cretan die-cutting tradition. The animal's tail is raised and swishing, while his head is turned back sharply to the left, lending the composition dynamic energy. The figure fills the flan with no exergue line, and no inscription or ethnic legend appears in the field. The treatment of the bull is consistent with the iconographic program referencing the myth of Zeus transformed, central to Gortynian coinage. |
