The base medallion is decorated with a nine-petalled rose and acanthus leaves, followed by a fine undecorated band and an ionic wave band alternating with cinquefoil rosettes and then a band of dolphins swimming right. On the broad band of the body, the repeated subject of an armor (trophy) alternating with a standing pensive bearded male figure wearing a conical cap and short sleeved tunic and resting on a thyrsus.
