Beschrijving voorzijde Diademed portrait bust of King Apodakos facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with naturalistic facial features, wavy hair swept back beneath the diadem, and a strong profile. The effigy displays fine die-cutting characteristic of Characenian royal coinage, with the diadem ties visible behind the neck. The portrait occupies the central field, with the coin's irregular flan typical of hammered silver issues of the period.

Beschrijving keerzijde Herakles seated left upon an anvil-shaped throne, depicted nude in the Hellenistic manner; his left arm rests upon the seat while his right hand grasps a club supported on his right knee. The royal legend reads downward in two vertical columns flanking the figure, with a dynastic monogram in the left field. A Seleucid-era regnal date appears in the exergue, confirming the year of issue.
