| Obverse description | Youthful head of Herakles facing right, wearing the Nemean lion skin headdress with the scalp drawn over the crown and the forepaws knotted at the neck. The portrait is rendered in fine Hellenistic style with naturalistic facial features, well-defined curling locks of hair escaping from beneath the pelt, and a strong, slightly idealized profile. The flan is slightly irregular, as typical of hand-struck coinage of this period. |
