| Obverse description | Diademed and veiled bust of Queen Philistis facing left, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with delicate facial features; a palm frond appears behind the bust to the right. The portrait is presented in high relief with careful attention to the drapery of the veil and the details of the diadem. The field is smooth and unlettered, placing full artistic emphasis on the royal effigy. |
