| Obverse description | A he-goat depicted in a running or kneeling posture facing right, rendered in the archaic style characteristic of Thraco-Macedonian coinage. Two pellets appear in the field behind the animal's head, serving as additional design elements or possible denomination marks. The figure is boldly struck with pronounced relief, displaying the characteristic fine detailing of the goat's anatomy including its beard and curved horns. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse. |

| Reverse description | A quadripartite incuse square divided into four recessed compartments by two perpendicular raised ridges meeting at the center, forming a mill-sail or windmill pattern. The compartments display alternating raised and depressed triangular sections, creating a distinctive geometric pattern typical of early Thraco-Macedonian fractional silver coinage. The incuse design fills the entire reverse field and was produced by a four-part punch driven into the flan at the moment of striking. No legend or inscription is present. |
