| Obverse description | Bare head of Heracles facing right, depicted in the Hellenistic tradition with characteristic features, set within a raised dotted border. The portrait is rendered in low relief typical of Baktrian bronze coinage, with the flan showing the characteristic irregular shape of hand-struck issues. The field surrounding the portrait is plain and slightly worn, consistent with circulation use. |
