| Obverse description | Bare head of Herakles facing right, clad in the Nemean lion skin headdress with the scalp knotted at the throat, rendered in the Hellenistic style characteristic of late fourth-century Ionian coinage. The portrait is boldly modelled in high relief within a broad, flat border, the lion's mane falling across the hero's neck and shoulder. The field is unlettered, with no exergual inscription. |
