| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in the archaic Greek provincial style with finely detailed beard and hair. The portrait occupies the full field of the flan, characteristic of small Aeolian bronze coinage of the Hellenistic period. The surface exhibits natural patination consistent with copper alloy issues of the 3rd–2nd century BC. |
