Beschrijving voorzijde A free horse prancing to the left in high relief, rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail characteristic of Thracian coinage of the period. The animal is depicted with forelegs raised in a spirited rearing posture, its mane finely engraved and flowing, its musculature rendered with accomplished artistry. The tail streams behind the hindquarters, and the legs show careful anatomical attention. The field is otherwise plain, with no legend or additional devices, the entire design occupying the broad flan to dramatic effect.

Beschrijving keerzijde A stylized grape vine arbor with bunches of grapes depicted within a linear square border, serving as the civic emblem of the wine-producing city of Maroneia. The magistrate's name legend EΠI ΦIΛ-ONI-KOY (meaning 'under Philonikos') is disposed around the central design in the four fields, identifying the issuing official responsible for the emission. The entire composition is set within a shallow incuse square, a technique characteristic of early Greek coinage of Thrace. The engraving is crisp and deliberate, reflecting the civic pride of a prosperous trading city renowned throughout the ancient world for its wine.
