| Obverse description | Bearded head of Dionysos facing left, wreathed with ivy, his long hair falling in wavy locks behind the neck. The god's mature, dignified features are rendered with exceptional sculptural quality characteristic of the Early Classical style, with deeply engraved beard and sensitively modeled facial planes. The portrait is contained within a finely executed border of beads. |
