Beschrijving voorzijde Facing gorgoneion rendered in archaic style, occupying the full field of the coin. The mask displays large, staring eyes with prominent pupils, a broad flat nose, and a wide grinning mouth with the characteristic apotropaic expression. Coiling serpents are visible framing the head at the upper periphery, and vestigial wings or serpentine locks radiate outward from the crown. The design is boldly modelled in high relief, consistent with the late Himeran bronze coinage tradition.

Beschrijving keerzijde Plain, unadorned field bearing three raised globular pellets arranged in a triangular formation — one above and two below — serving as the denomination mark for the tetras, equivalent to three onkiai or one-third of a litra. The pellets are rendered as smooth, hemispherical bosses in high relief against an otherwise plain and uninscribed reverse field. No legend or additional device is present.
