| Obverse description | Facing right in profile, the bearded head of Hermes is rendered in fine archaic Greek style, adorned with a broad-brimmed petasos decorated along its brim with a row of raised pellets. The facial features are naturalistically modelled, with a well-defined nose, slightly parted lips, and a finely articulated eye. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, characteristic of early Thracian silver coinage. No legend appears on the obverse. |
