| Obverse description | Youthful bare head of Heracles facing right, the hero depicted without beard and adorned with the Nemean lion skin headdress, its scalp covering the crown and the forepaws knotted at the throat. The portrait is rendered in vigorous Hellenistic style with finely modelled facial features, curling locks escaping from beneath the pelt, and the lion's mane framing the cheek and neck. No legend appears on the obverse field. |
