Obverse description Head of an eagle facing left, rendered in high relief with finely detailed feathering along the neck and crown. The bird's beak holds a coiling serpent, whose body curves prominently across the field both above and below the eagle's head. A border of large beads frames the design along the upper periphery. The abbreviation OΛ appears in the field, referencing the issuing city of Lokroi. The composition is bold and characteristic of the archaic South Italian die-cutting tradition.
