| Obverse description | Laureate head of Dionysus facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with characteristic flowing locks of hair and a wreath of ivy or vine leaves crowning the brow. The portrait is set within an unadorned field on a flan of irregular shape typical of provincial bronze coinage of the 3rd century BC. The relief is moderately high and the engraving displays competent provincial craftsmanship. No legend is present on the obverse. |
