| Beschrijving voorzijde | Europa seated in three-quarter view to right, nestled within the spreading branches of a plane tree; her right hand rests upon a lower branch while her left arm is extended forward, conveying a sense of calm repose. The figure is rendered in fine archaic Greek style, with detailed drapery and an intimate relationship between the deity and the sacred tree, a motif closely associated with the Cretan myth of Europa at Gortyna. The field is largely plain, with the tree branches framing the figure on both sides. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A Cretan bull strides vigorously to the right with head turned to face the viewer frontally, its muscular body rendered with characteristic energy and naturalistic detail typical of late Classical Cretan coinage. The animal's tail curves upward over its hindquarters, and its legs are shown in dynamic motion. In the lower field beneath the bull, a small bee is depicted, a prominent civic symbol of Gortyna and Crete. A beaded border runs along the upper periphery of the flan. |
