| Obverse description | Youthful head of Herakles in right profile, wearing the scalp of the Nemean lion as a headdress, with the beast's mane rendered in flowing locks framing the face. The portrait is modelled in the Hellenistic tradition, reflecting the influence of early Macedonian coinage types. The flan is small and slightly irregular, characteristic of this early Pergamene bronze series. |
