Obverse description Bare male head facing right, draped at the shoulder, with hair rendered in thick stylized locks. A palm branch is depicted in the left field behind the head. The design is enclosed within a dotted border, characteristic of Iberian bronze coinage of the period. The style reflects a local Iberian interpretation of Hellenistic portraiture.

Reverse description Horseman advancing to the right at a canter, the rider wearing a chlamys and holding an upraised palm branch in his extended right hand. A Iberian legend in Levantine semi-syllabic script appears in the exergue below the horse. The composition follows the characteristic Iberian jinete type widely adopted across northeastern Hispanian mints during the early 2nd century BC.
