Reverse description Heracles shown standing and wrestling with the Nemean lion to the right, in a dynamic composition depicting the hero grappling and overpowering the beast in the first of his canonical twelve labours. The muscular figure of Heracles dominates the field, his body straining against the lion in vigorous relief. A ground line is present beneath the figures, with the civic ethnic legend occupying the lower exergual area. The encircling magistrate legend runs along the upper periphery of the flan, framed by a beaded border.
