| Reverse description | Head of Athena facing right, wearing a crested Attic helmet with elaborate cheek-guards and flowing hair visible beneath the rim. The goddess's features are rendered in fine classical style with a strong profile, almond-shaped eye, and well-defined lips. Traces of the civic inscription ΛΑΜΨ appear in the field, identifying the issuing city of Lampsakos. The flan, as typical of hammered issues of this period, is irregular and slightly convex, with the design struck in high relief. |
