| Obverse description | Facing left, the youthful head of Herakles is depicted in three-quarter profile, draped in the scalp of the Nemean lion, with the knotted forelegs tied beneath the chin. The facial features are rendered in a bold, archaic style characteristic of early Macedonian civic coinage. The lion's mane and pelt are delineated with incised lines framing the hero's visage. No legend appears in the field. |
