| Obverse description | Three amphorae arranged side by side in a row, facing forward, rendered in high relief against a plain concave field. The vessels display characteristic Greek amphora form with double handles and tapering bodies, their bases resting on a flat ground line. The composition is bold and emblematic, occupying the full width of the flan. No legend or inscription is present. The style is consistent with the archaic-to-early classical coinage tradition of Boeotian mints. |

| Reverse description | A horse and rider depicted in brisk motion to the right, rendered in lively archaic style within an incuse square field. The rider is shown in profile, leaning forward with dynamic energy, while the horse is depicted at a canter with forelegs raised. A small star or floral symbol appears to the right of the horse in the field. No inscription or legend is present. The engraving reflects the early classical Greek coinage tradition characteristic of Boeotian civic issues. |
