| Obverse description | Head of the nymph Sinope facing left, rendered in fine archaic-influenced style typical of late 4th century BC Pontic coinage. The hair is swept back in wavy strands secured by a sphendone or fillet, with loose locks falling behind the ear. She wears a beaded necklace and earring, and several pellets are visible in the left field, likely serving as control marks or symbolic devices. |
