| Obverse description | Turreted and draped bust of Tyche facing right, wearing a mural crown with battlements, her hair arranged in waves beneath the crown. The bust is rendered in the Hellenistic style with fine drapery visible at the shoulder. The flan is slightly irregular, characteristic of hammered bronze coinage of this period, with a recessed field and a partially visible border of dots. |
