| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diademed head of Demetrius I Poliorcetes facing right, portrayed as a youthful and idealized figure with flowing, elaborately rendered curly hair. The king wears a royal diadem, its ends visible behind the neck, evoking both his Hellenistic royal status and his legendary association with the divine. The portrait is rendered in high relief with finely modeled facial features characteristic of the vigorous Macedonian die-cutting tradition of the early third century BC. The field is smooth and unencumbered by inscription, allowing the portrait full prominence. The coin is framed by a beaded border. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing nude figure of Poseidon facing left, right foot raised and resting on a rocky promontory or prow, body in a dynamic contrapposto pose. The god holds a long trident upright in his right hand, the shaft extending toward the upper field, while his left arm is extended. The composition reflects the iconographic association between Demetrius Poliorcetes and Poseidon, underscoring his naval prowess and divine pretensions. The royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ to the right and ΔΗΜΗΤΡΙΟΥ to the left frames the central figure in two vertical columns. A thunderbolt monogram appears in the lower left field, and the whole design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
