| Obverse description | Cow standing to right, head turned back to left to suckle a suckling calf below; the group rendered in high relief with naturalistic detail typical of Dyrrachion coinage. The Greek legend MAXATAΣ (magistrate name Machatas) arcs across the upper field above the cow. The composition fills the flan with the animals occupying the central and lower fields, with the legend prominently displayed in the exergual area above. |
