| Obverse description | Diademed draped bust of King Diomedes facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with fine portraiture detail. The diadem is clearly visible binding the hair, with curled locks framing the face. A circular Greek legend surrounds the effigy within a beaded border, reading BAΣIΛEΩΣ ΣΩTHPOΣ ΔΙΟΜΗΔΟΥ, identifying the ruler as the Saviour King Diomedes. |
