| Obverse description | A scallop shell rendered in high relief, depicted with radiating ribs fanning outward from a central umbo, shown in three-quarter view occupying the central field. The shell's naturalistic detail is characteristic of the fine engraving tradition of Tarentine bronzes, with the valves carefully articulated against a flat, unadorned field. |
