| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with long flowing hair and a full, carefully detailed beard. The laurel wreath is clearly visible adorning the god's hair, and the portraiture displays strong, mature facial features characteristic of Thessalian coinage of the period. A monogram appears in the field behind the head. The design is framed by a border of dots along the coin's periphery. |
