The sculpture on the ancient coin features two figures. On the left, a figure is seated on a folding chair, dressed in a classical toga or robe. Their hair is styled in wavy locks. On the right, a standing figure is shown leaning on a large amphora-like vessel with one hand and gesturing towards the seated figure with the other. Between the two figures is a tall palm tree. The sculpture is crafted from bronze, giving it a dark brown color with areas of lighter sheen. Surrounding the figures are inscriptions and markings, including "NERO AVG" at the bottom. The circular sculpture has two small holes, possibly for mounting.
