| Obverse description | Diademed and draped bust of Antimachus I facing right, distinguished by the broad-brimmed Macedonian causia helmet characteristic of his portraiture. The effigy is rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with fine engraving of facial detail, the diadem ribbons falling behind the neck. The field is plain and the design is contained within a dotted border. |
