| Obverse description | Forepart of a boar advancing to the left, rendered in archaic style with boldly modeled musculature and a prominent bristled ridge along the neck and shoulder. The eye is rendered as a raised pellet, and the snout and forelegs are clearly articulated. The flan is irregular and the relief is high, consistent with early Lycian dynastic coinage of the late Archaic period. |

| Reverse description | Facing head of a bull depicted in three-quarter view within a shallow incuse square, rendered in the archaic manner with large, forward-facing eyes and prominent horns. Above the bull's head, an upright palm branch is positioned in the field. The incuse square border frames the composition and is characteristic of early Lycian dynastic silver coinage of the late Archaic period. |
