| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in high relief with masterful Classical Greek craftsmanship. The deity is depicted with flowing, wavy hair swept back beneath an olive laurel wreath, and a full, finely detailed beard with curling locks. The bold, idealised facial features display a strong profile with a prominent brow, aquiline nose, and slightly parted lips, all characteristic of the Pella mint's finest engraving tradition. The broad flan allows the design to fill the field generously, with no legend present on the obverse. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Philip II on horseback, riding to the left, depicted in military attire consisting of armour, kausia (Macedonian flat hat), and a billowing cloak trailing dramatically behind him; his right arm is raised in a gesture of salute or acclamation. Below the horse's belly, a vertical thunderbolt symbol is visible, accompanied by the letters Ζ over Μ and a wreath, serving as mint control marks. The retrograde legend ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΥ (genitive of Philippos, meaning 'of Philip') appears in the field, identifying the issuing authority. The composition is vigorous and dynamic, reflecting the energetic equestrian iconography characteristic of early Macedonian royal coinage. |
