| Obverse description | Laureate head of Poseidon facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with characteristic flowing beard and hair bound with a laurel wreath. The deity's mature, rugged features are modelled in high relief, with deeply incised locks of hair and beard conveying a commanding, divine presence. The portrait fills the field generously, with the truncation of the neck at the lower border. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse. |
