Beschrijving voorzijde Janiform conjoined heads facing in opposite directions: to the left, a mature bearded male head with curly hair and beard, rendered with strong naturalistic modeling; to the right, a youthful female head facing right, her hair gathered and bound with a diadem or taenia. The two heads share a single neck, a distinctive iconographic type closely associated with Tenedos and emblematic of the island's coinage throughout the Classical period. The sculptural quality of the dies reflects accomplished archaic-to-classical transitional workmanship.

Beschrijving keerzijde A labrys (double-headed axe) displayed upright at center, its broad double blades prominently rendered against a flat field within a linear border. The ethnic legend ΤΕΝΕΔΙΩΝ is distributed around the symbol in four segments — ΤΕ above the upper blade, ΝΕ to its right, Ο to the lower left, and Δ to the lower right — framing the design. To the lower left of the axe handle hangs a pendant bunch of grapes, and to the lower right rests a lyre with a tortoiseshell resonator, both rendered in fine relief. These symbols — the labrys, grapes, and lyre — are characteristic civic and religious emblems of Tenedos, referencing local cult and the mythological heritage of the island.
