Beschrijving voorzijde Helmeted head of Athena facing right, portrayed in the Attic tradition with a triple-crested Corinthian helmet whose bowl is adorned with a coiled serpent to the right. The goddess wears a pendant earring and a pearl necklace, rendered with fine detail characteristic of the Babylonian mint workshops operating under Antigonus I. The portrait follows the canonical Alexander-series type established for gold staters, presenting Athena as a powerful divine protectress. The field is plain, with the design struck on a slightly irregular flan typical of hammered Hellenistic coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde Nike, the goddess of victory, stands facing left with wings fully extended, her drapery rendered with flowing naturalistic detail. In her outstretched right hand she holds a laurel wreath, while her left hand grasps a stylis (naval standard). To the left of the figure, a monogram appears within a wreath, serving as a mint control mark, and below the left wing the Greek letter Η (eta) appears as a secondary control symbol. The reverse legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ arcs around the composition, identifying the issue as struck in the name of Alexander the Great, a practice continued by Antigonus I to legitimize his authority.
