| Obverse description | Laureate head of Poseidon facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with flowing, voluminous hair and a full beard. The laurel wreath is depicted with careful detail, its leaves clearly articulated against the god's thick locks. The portrait fills the flan with considerable authority, the musculature of the neck and the strong facial features conveying the deity's divine power. The field is bordered by a beaded (dotted) circle. No legend appears on the obverse. |
