| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, rendered in low relief with characteristic archaic-influenced style. The goddess wears a Corinthian helmet with a prominent bowl and raised cheekpieces, the crest partially visible above the crown. The facial features are rendered with fine detail, including a delicate profile with almond-shaped eye and gently parted lips. The neck is bare, with undulating locks of hair visible beneath the helmet's rim. The field is plain, with no legend present on the obverse. |
