| Obverse description | Draped bust of Eros facing right, depicted in the Hellenistic artistic tradition with youthful features and winged shoulders partially visible. The portrait is rendered in low relief characteristic of Seleucid bronze coinage of the period. The field is plain and uninscribed, with no legend present on the obverse. The coin surface exhibits the irregular flan typical of hammered bronze issues of the era. |
