Obverse description Bare head of Herakles in right profile, clad in the scalp of the Nemean lion, the jaws surmounting the hero's crown and the pelt's forelegs knotted at the throat. The effigy is rendered in the bold, high-relief style characteristic of late Classical Ionian coinage, with finely articulated musculature at the neck and a resolute facial expression. The field is plain and unlettered, with no exergue line.
