| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a Corinthian helmet with raised crest and cheekpieces. The goddess is depicted in fine relief with bold, confident engraving characteristic of Hellenistic civic bronze coinage from Lesbos. The facial features are rendered in a naturalistic style, with the helmet fitting closely to the head. The field is plain. |
