| Obverse description | Draped half-length bust of a Maenad facing right, her hair bound in a sphendone headdress with loose flowing locks framing the face. The figure is rendered in fine archaic-to-classical Greek style, with delicate facial features, a slightly open mouth, and naturalistic drapery visible at the truncation. The hair is elaborately dressed with individual strands finely engraved, conveying the dynamic energy associated with Dionysiac imagery. No legend present in the field. |
