Obverse description Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the naturalistic Hellenistic style characteristic of late 4th-century Ionian civic coinage. The deity's hair is elaborately dressed with a laurel wreath, with loose locks falling about the neck. The portrait is set within a plain, unbordered field with no surrounding legend. The modelling of the facial features shows confident die-cutting, with a well-defined eye, straight nose, and slightly parted lips.
