| Obverse description | Ram's head facing right in profile, rendered in archaic style with boldly modeled features. A dolphin is depicted in the lower field, also oriented to the right. The design is struck in low relief on an irregular flan typical of early Phokian coinage, with no legend or inscription present. |

| Reverse description | Plain incuse square occupying most of the reverse field, subdivided by irregular die lines creating a rough quadripartite or irregular pattern. The incuse is deeply struck, characteristic of early archaic hammered coinage, with no legible symbols, letters, or subsidiary devices. The surface exhibits the uneven texture typical of this early period of Greek minting. |
