Beschrijving voorzijde Two long-horned, bearded goats depicted vertically opposed and back-to-back, their heads turned inward to face one another and their legs fully extended, rendered in archaic relief. A prominent five-lobed fig leaf occupies the central field between the two animals, serving as the primary decorative dividing element. The composition is arranged with striking bilateral symmetry, characteristic of early fifth-century BC Aegean island coinage. The naturalistic rendering of the goats, a locally significant motif, reflects the distinctive artistic conventions of the Thessalian island workshops of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde Elaborate stellate pattern struck in deep incuse square, consisting of a large central globule encircled by four smaller satellite globules, with two radiating rays extending toward the upper left and lower right. Two three-lobed fig leaves fill the upper right and lower left quadrants of the design, lending foliate balance to the geometric composition. The entire design is contained within a bold incuse square, a technique common to early Greek coinage of the late Archaic period. The combination of globular and botanical elements creates a distinctive cruciform arrangement that is characteristic of the Skyrian series.
