| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing left, rendered in bold relief with characteristic flowing beard and wavy hair secured by a laurel wreath. The portrait exhibits the mature, dignified iconography associated with Arcadian League bronze coinage, with strong facial features and naturalistic modeling of the hair. The surface retains a deep brown patina with areas of green encrustation consistent with ancient burial. The effigy fills the flan and reflects the artistic conventions of early Hellenistic Peloponnesian die-cutting. |
