| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing left, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with flowing, elaborately detailed curly hair falling behind the neck. The laurel wreath is depicted with precise, naturalistic leaves arranged across the crown of the head. The facial features are finely modeled, with a straight nose, slightly parted lips, and a calm, idealized expression characteristic of 3rd–2nd century BC Milesian coinage. The flan is slightly irregular, typical of hammered Greek silver issues of this period. |
