| Obverse description | A dove in flight, depicted in three-quarter view moving to the right, with wings prominently spread and rendered in bold relief. The bird's primary feathers are carefully delineated, radiating outward in a stylized yet naturalistic manner characteristic of Sikyonian bronze coinage. The tail feathers and body are rendered in a compact, assured style consistent with late Hellenistic civic bronzes. The field is otherwise plain and unlettered. |
