| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Othon (Otto of Bavaria, King of Greece) facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed curly hair and a short beard, in a classical neoclassical style. The portrait is positioned centrally within the field, with a bold, smooth truncation at the neck. The circular legend surrounds the effigy, reading ΟΘΩΝ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥΣ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ (Othon King of Greece), separated by the portrait itself. The coin's surface displays a deeply polished field consistent with a proof-quality pattern strike, framed by a fine beaded border. |
