| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, depicted in fine Hellenistic style. The goddess wears a crested Corinthian helmet pushed back on her head, revealing her facial features with a straight nose and almond-shaped eye rendered in high relief. Loose wavy locks of hair fall beneath the helmet onto the neck. The flan is slightly irregular, characteristic of hand-struck Pamphylian coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | Nike advancing left with outstretched wings, holding a wreath in her extended right hand, rendered in the dynamic Hellenistic tradition. In the left field, a pomegranate — the civic emblem of Side — is placed above the name of the magistrate in Greek letters. The composition reflects the standard reverse type of Side's autonomous silver coinage, combining the city's badge with the figure of Victory. |
