| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic style characteristic of Pontic Black Sea coinage. The deity's facial features, though partially obscured by green patination and surface wear, retain the idealized Classical treatment typical of the type. The laurel wreath is discernible encircling the head, serving as the principal divine attribute of the god. The flan is irregular and slightly broader than the die, leaving the field largely unadorned. No legend appears on the obverse. |
