| Obverse description | Head of the deified Heracles facing right, wearing the Nemean lion's scalp headdress, with the lion's mane rendered in bold relief and the jaw framing the upper portion of the face. The portrait follows the idealized Lysippan tradition associating Heracles with Alexander the Great. The flan is slightly irregular and the striking crisp, with the facial features well articulated in the field. |
