| Obverse description | Turreted, veiled, and draped bust of Tyche facing right, wearing a mural crown, with veil falling behind the neck. The bust is rendered in the local Phoenician style typical of civic bronzes from Ascalon, with drapery visible at the shoulder. The flan is irregular and the design occupies the central field without a surrounding legend. |
