| Obverse description | Bare male head of the hero Gyrton facing right, depicted in profile with naturalistic Thessalian style typical of the mid-4th century BC. To the left of the head, a bridled horse's head faces right, serving as a secondary device and alluding to the equestrian culture of Thessaly. The surfaces of the flan show the characteristic irregularity of hammered ancient bronze coinage. No legend is present on the obverse. |
