| Obverse description | Male head facing right, wearing a crested helmet adorned with a distinctive scale or dot pattern across the crown and a cheek-guard rendered in low relief. The facial features are rendered in an Iberian provincial style, with a strong jawline and schematic eye. Traces of a beaded border are visible along the coin's periphery. |

| Reverse description | Mounted horseman galloping to the right, the rider depicted with curly hair and holding what appears to be a lance or palm branch; the horse shown in full stride with all four legs extended. Below the horse, in the exergue, appears the Iberian legend in Levantine script identifying the mint city of Alaun. A dolphin or similar device may appear before the horse's forelegs. The composition follows the standard Ibero-Roman horseman type common to the northeastern Iberian Peninsula during the late Republican period. |
