| Obverse description | Youthful head of Herakles facing right, clad in the Nemean lion skin headdress, with the scalp and open jaws of the lion visible over the crown of the head and the knotted paws draped across the neck. The facial features are rendered with fine archaic-transitional style, displaying a straight nose, slightly parted lips, and a well-modelled cheek. The hair emerges in short, compact curls beneath the lion skin. The flan is slightly irregular, with the design well-centred within the available surface. |
