| Obverse description | Diademed head of Antiochos XI facing right, portrayed as a youthful, idealised Hellenistic ruler with finely rendered curling hair bound by a royal diadem, the ends of which fall behind the neck. The facial features are delicately modelled in the late Seleucid portrait tradition, with a straight nose, slightly parted lips, and a clean-shaven visage. The field is plain, with no inscription, the portrait occupying the full breadth of the flan. |

| Reverse description | Zeus Nikephoros enthroned to left, depicted nude to the waist and draped across the lower body, seated upon an ornate throne and holding a long sceptre in his left hand while extending his right hand bearing Nike, the goddess of victory. A monogram appears in the upper left outer field above the letter A, and a second monogram is placed beneath the throne. The entire design is encircled by a laurel wreath border, with the royal Greek legend distributed along the left and right fields outside the central image. |
