| Obverse description | Boeotian shield depicted facing, rendered in high relief with characteristic curved cutouts on either side forming the distinctive double-notched silhouette. The shield's convex central boss dominates the design field, surrounded by a plain raised border. The overall composition is bold and stark, reflecting the emblematic civic identity of the Boeotian League. |

| Reverse description | Amphora (oinochoe) depicted in profile at center, shown with double handles, beaded collar, and a rounded body tapering to a stepped foot, all rendered in fine incuse relief. The magistrate's name is divided across the field to the left and right of the vessel in Greek characters. The entire design is set within a shallow concave incuse circle, a hallmark of Theban stater coinage of this period. |
