| Obverse description | Diademed head of the deified Alexander the Great facing right, wearing the horn of Ammon curling behind his ear, rendered with finely detailed wavy hair swept back from the forehead. The portrait follows the iconic Lysimachean type, presenting Alexander in three-quarter profile with idealised Hellenistic features. The field is plain, and the coin presents no legend on the obverse. The die work is of high quality, displaying the characteristic artistic style associated with the Ephesian mint. |
