Beschrijving voorzijde Helmeted head of Athena facing right, rendered in fine high relief characteristic of the Macedonian royal coinage tradition. The goddess wears a crested Corinthian helmet pushed back on her head, with elaborate plume and cheekpieces finely articulated; flowing locks of hair emerge from beneath the helmet and cascade along the neck. A pearl necklace is visible at the base of the neck, and a small serpent coils beneath the chin, a detail associated with the Athenian Athena Parthenos iconographic tradition. The portrait displays confident, naturalistic modeling consistent with the high-quality die engraving of the Babylon mint under Antigonus I.

Beschrijving keerzijde Nike, the goddess of victory, stands facing left in a graceful, slightly draped pose, extending a wreath in her raised right hand and holding a stylis (ship's stern ornament) in her lowered left hand. In the left field, the head of Silenus appears as a mint control symbol. In the right field, a monogram is enclosed within a wreath, serving as an additional control mark identifying the officina or issuing authority. The Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs in the field, invoking the royal name of Alexander, under whose posthumous authority this issue was struck by Antigonus I Monophthalmus at Babylon.
