Obverse description Youthful bare head of Heracles in right profile, wearing the Nemean lion skin headdress, the scalp and paws knotted beneath the chin. The modelling is characteristic of the early post-Alexander Kolophon issues, with fine naturalistic rendering of the facial features and the textured lion skin rendered in high relief across the crown of the head.
