Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed curling hair and a full beard characteristic of the mature Macedonian die-cutting style. The wreath of laurel leaves is depicted with naturalistic precision, resting across the brow and extending into the flowing locks. The portrait exhibits the idealized yet powerful aesthetic associated with the coinage of Philip II, with strong facial features and a commanding profile. The field is plain and unlettered, focusing attention entirely on the divine effigy.

Beschrijving keerzijde A nude youth seated on a prancing horse moving to the right, holding a palm frond in his raised right hand, rendered with dynamic energy and fine anatomical detail. The horse is depicted in a high-stepping gait with its head turned slightly, conveying motion and vitality. The legend ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΥ is inscribed in Greek characters, divided across the field to the left and right of the horse and rider. Below the horse, a thunderbolt symbol appears in the exergual area, serving as a secondary control mark. The composition reflects the masterful die engraving tradition of the Pella mint under Philip II.
