| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Leukippos facing left, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet with cheekpieces; the facial features rendered in the late Hellenistic style characteristic of Lucanian bronze coinage. The helmet crest rises prominently above the skull, and the cheekpieces frame the face in typical Corinthian fashion. The portrait fills the flan, with the neck truncation visible at the lower left. The field is plain, with no visible legend. |
