| Obverse description | Head of the nymph Terina facing right, her hair bound with a wreath or fillet and rendered in delicate relief with strands swept back from the brow, executed in the refined early Classical style characteristic of Magna Graecia coinage. A small circular symbol appears to the right of the neck. The Greek legend TEPINAION is partially visible along the upper periphery of the flan, with the engraver's mark Φ also present in the field. |

| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, seated in a three-quarter pose with wings spread prominently to the left, her drapery rendered in flowing folds across her lower body. She holds a kerykeion (caduceus) upright in her right hand, while her left arm rests at her side; a small bird or symbol appears in the lower left field. The ethnic legend TEPINAION runs along the right periphery of the flan in Greek characters, affirming the civic identity of the issuing city of Terina. |
