| Obverse description | Ram's head facing left in high relief, with prominent curling horn rendered in fine archaic style. A dolphin is depicted leaping to the left in the lower field beneath the ram's head. The design fills the flan with vigorous, naturalistic modeling characteristic of Delphic coinage of the mid-4th century BC. |

| Reverse description | Goat's head facing full-front at center, flanked on either side by a dolphin with heads oriented upward, and two ivy leaves positioned downward in the lower field. The abbreviation ΔEΛ appears above in Greek letters, referencing Delphi. The entire design is enclosed within a recessed incuse circle, a hallmark technique of Phokian and Delphic issues of this period. |
