Descrizione del dritto	Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic style with finely detailed radiate crown of laurel. The portrait occupies the majority of the flan, with the god's youthful facial features visible despite moderate surface wear. The neck is truncated cleanly at the base, and the surrounding field is plain within a beaded border.

Descrizione del rovescio	The seated figure of Homer, the legendary epic poet, depicted facing left in a draped himation upon a throne or klismos chair, holding what appears to be a scroll or staff. The figure is rendered in a static, hieratic pose typical of Hellenistic civic bronze coinage honoring illustrious personages associated with the city. The Greek ethnic legend ΣΜΥΡΝΑΙΩΝ appears to the right, and the magistrate's name ΛΕΟΝΤΙΣΚΟΣ to the left, both disposed vertically in the field flanking the central type.
