Obverse description Large high-relief bust of Demosthenes facing slightly left, with curly hair and a short beard, his right hand raised in a rhetorical gesture. The field around the effigy features low-relief decorative elements suggestive of classical Greek imagery. An engraver's signature is visible in small letters near the upper left of the field.
