The plain beetle has a carinated ridge dividing the elytra. The underside is engraved with a lion attacking a goat, enclosed within a hatched border. The lion has a crosshatched mane with projecting bristles, which stylistically connects this gem to others grouped together by J. Boardman under the Common Style (see nos. 377-405, pp. 125-128 in Archaic Greek Gems).
