Obverse description Draped bust of a female divinity, most likely a nymph or Persephone, facing left, rendered in relief with fine archaic-to-classical stylistic detail. The hair is elaborately arranged and tied, falling in locks behind the neck, consistent with Thessalian die-cutting conventions of the fourth century BC. The portrait occupies the full field of the flan, with no surrounding legend. The modelling of the facial features is confident, with a well-defined profile, almond-shaped eye, and slightly parted lips characteristic of the period.
