| Obverse description | Diademed female head in right profile, depicted with finely rendered wavy hair drawn back beneath a diadem, the facial features executed in a sensitive Hellenistic style. The portrait, likely representing a local goddess or personification, is set within a broad, slightly irregular flan typical of provincial bronze coinage. The field is plain, with no legend or mintmark. The relief is moderately high, with naturalistic modeling of the cheek, chin, and neck. |
