Beschrijving voorzijde Youthful bare head of Heracles facing right, enveloped in the Nemean lion skin headdress, with the scalp and forelegs knotted beneath the chin. The facial features are rendered with fine Hellenistic artistry, displaying high cheekbones, a strong aquiline nose, and slightly parted lips. The lion's mane and pelt are depicted in detailed relief, framing the hero's profile. The field is plain, and the design is bordered by a partial dotted bead-and-reel border visible on the right. No legend appears on the obverse.

Beschrijving keerzijde Zeus Aëtophoros seated left on a low throne, his upper body nude and his lower body draped, holding an eagle with wings closed on his extended right hand and a long sceptre upright in his left. In the left field, an aplustre (naval trophy ornament) is depicted above a monogram placed below the throne. The reverse legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right and upper fields, identifying the coin as issued in the name of Alexander the Great. The composition follows the canonical Alexandrine reverse type struck at numerous mints across the Hellenistic world.
