| Obverse description | Laureate head of Poseidon facing right, rendered in bold high relief with finely detailed hair bound by a laurel wreath and a full beard flowing naturalistically. The god's strong, mature features display the characteristically robust Hellenistic style associated with Boeotian coinage of the period. The flan is irregularly shaped, as typical of hammered Greek silver, with the portrait dominating the field and the border showing a beaded inner circle at the periphery. |
