Obverse description Female head in right profile, rendered in the Attic Greek style, with finely detailed wavy hair drawn back and secured, exposing the ear adorned with a small earring. The facial features are sensitively modelled with a pronounced almond-shaped eye, delicate nose, and slightly parted lips. The bust is bare, and the design occupies the full flan without border or inscription, reflecting the strong Athenian artistic influence prevalent in Philistian coinage of the fifth and fourth centuries BC.
