| Obverse description | Three-quarter facing head of the nymph Larissa, turned slightly to left, rendered in fine archaic-transitional style characteristic of Thessalian coinage. The hair is elaborately dressed and adorned with grain ears, referencing the agricultural fertility of the region. She wears a triple-pendant earring and a necklace, with soft facial features set within a well-centred, slightly irregular flan. The portrait exhibits the influence of the broader Greek tradition of nymph iconography associated with Thessalian civic identity. |
