| Aversbeschreibung | Boeotian shield rendered in high relief, depicted facing, with the characteristic curved cutouts on either side of the central boss. The convex central field is plain and unadorned, while the incised outline of the shield faithfully reproduces the distinctive shape associated with Boeotian military equipment. The design fills the flan closely, with the shield's lateral recesses rendered with crisp definition. No legend or additional device appears on this face. |

| Reversbeschreibung | An Amphora (oinochoe) depicted in fine relief at center, with volute handles, a flared foot, and a grape cluster issuing from the mouth, flanked to the right by a small hanging heart-shaped pendant. The magistrate's name is inscribed in archaic Boeotian Greek letters divided on either side of the amphora: HI to the left and KE to the right, identifying the issuing magistrate Hike. The composition is well-centered on the irregular flan, with the vessel's proportions rendered with considerable artistic detail. |

Thebes struck these staters during a period of genuine Boeotian ascendancy, bracketed by the city's growing military confidence following the Battle of Haliartus in 395 BC and the catastrophic Spartan occupation of the Kadmeia in 382 BC — an act of treachery by which a Spartan commander seized the citadel during peacetime, effectively ending Theban autonomy overnight and halting civic coin production. The Hepworth 51–52 classification places this piece within a tightly defined die sequence, the product of a functioning mint operating under a confederacy that was about to be violently dismantled.
