| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena in right profile, wearing a Corinthian helmet adorned with an olive wreath, rendered in fine archaic Greek style with carefully delineated facial features. The relief is boldly struck on the irregular flan, with the goddess's curling locks visible beneath the helmet's cheek-guard. The modeling of the face displays the characteristic naturalism of late fifth-century Pontic engraving. No legend appears on this side. |
