| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena in left profile, rendered in fine archaic-to-classical style characteristic of Phokaian electrum coinage. The goddess wears a crested Attic helmet pushed back on the head, revealing carefully detailed hair falling in locks along the neck. Facial features are finely modeled with a prominent nose and well-defined chin. The overall style reflects the high artistic quality associated with the Phokaian mint of the late Classical period. |
