| Obverse description | Athena depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, wearing a crested Attic helmet and a draped chiton; she holds a long spear in her right hand and a round shield in her left. The figure is rendered in an archaic-to-early classical style characteristic of Cypriot coinage of this period. Greek inscription BΛ ΔH appears in the field, representing an abbreviated royal legend attributable to king Demonikos II of Lapethos. |
