Beschrijving voorzijde Helmeted head of Athena facing right, depicted in fine Hellenistic style with naturalistic rendering of facial features. The goddess wears a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, adorned with a prominent horsehair crest that sweeps dramatically to the right, rendered with finely engraved parallel striations. Visible beneath the helmet's cheekpiece are locks of hair falling to the neck, and a beaded necklace is discernible at the base of the throat. The portrait is boldly struck in high relief against a plain field, characteristic of the Alexandrine coinage tradition.

Beschrijving keerzijde Nike, the goddess of victory, stands facing left in flowing garments, her wings spread behind her. In her extended right hand she holds a wreath, and in her left hand a stylis (ship's stern ornament), referencing the naval associations of the Sinope mint. In the left field, a star appears as a mint control symbol; below the left wing, the letters ΣΙ identify the issuing mint of Sinope, while below the right wing appears an additional monogram serving as a further control mark. The legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, attributing the issue to Alexander III.
