| Obverse description | Bare head of youthful Heracles, assimilated to Alexander the Great, turned to right, wearing the Nemean lion-scalp helmet with the scalp's jaws framing the face; the rendering is in the Hellenistic provincial tradition typical of Phrygian civic bronzes of the Antonine period. |
