| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered with bold sculptural quality typical of late Hellenistic Phrygian bronze coinage. The deity is depicted with a full, flowing beard rendered in deep relief with individualised curling locks, and long wavy hair cascading behind the neck. The laurel wreath is clearly articulated across the brow. The facial features are strongly modelled, conveying divine majesty, with a prominent nose and deeply set eye. No legend appears on the obverse. |
