Beschrijving voorzijde Pegasus depicted in dynamic right-facing posture, wings fully spread and rendered in bold archaic relief, the musculature of the body and haunches modelled with considerable naturalistic detail for the period. The winged horse is shown in a crouching or prancing stance, with the forelegs extended forward and the hindquarters lowered, set against a broad, unadorned field. The style is characteristic of early Lycian coinage of the late Archaic period, exhibiting the stiff yet vigorous energy typical of fifth-century Anatolian die-cutting. No legend or inscription is present on the obverse.

Beschrijving keerzijde Incuse square divided into a recessed field, within which appears a bull or lion in a recumbent or crouching position facing left, rendered in sunken relief consistent with early Lycian hammered coinage. The incuse is framed by a beaded or dotted border on at least one side, with the interior design displaying bold archaic modelling of the animal's body and head. The reverse design is set within an irregular quadripartite incuse punch, a hallmark of fifth-century BC Lycian dynastic silver coinage. No inscriptions or dynastic legends are present, reflecting the anonymous nature of this issue attributed to an uncertain Lycian dynast.
