| Obverse description | Bare head of Apollo facing left, rendered in the late Classical style with finely detailed wavy hair bound by a laurel wreath whose leaves are rendered naturalistically across the crown. The facial features display a youthful idealism characteristic of Cyrenaican die-cutting of the early Hellenistic period, with a prominent brow, delicate nose, and slightly parted lips. The hair flows in long, undulating locks behind the neck, and the wreath ties are visible above the ear. The field is plain and unlettered. |
