| Reverse description | Female head facing right, identified tentatively as either Hypsipyle or Hera, adorned with an uncertain headdress consistent with Argive religious iconography. A serpent is depicted to the right of the head, a motif strongly associated with Argive cult worship, particularly that of Hera. The reverse legend ΑΡΓΕΙωΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority of Argos. The overall style reflects the provincial bronze coinage of Achaea under the Antonine dynasty. |
