| Obverse description | Youthful head of Heracles facing right, depicted beardless and wearing a lion skin headdress, the scalp and open jaws of the pelt rendered in high relief over the crown of the head. The facial features are finely modelled in the Hellenistic tradition, with curling locks of hair visible beneath the headdress. A beaded border encircles the design, typical of Macedonian royal coinage of the period. |
