Obverse description Facing head of a bearded deity, most likely Herakles or a river god, rendered in a bold archaic-to-early-classical style, occupying the majority of the flan. The hair is depicted in thick, radiating locks framing the face, and the features are rendered with pronounced relief typical of Chersonesian bronze coinage. The Greek monogram ΗΡ (abbreviation for Herakles or the civic magistrate's initial) appears in the upper field above the head.
