| Obverse description | Head of Herakles in right-facing profile, clad in the Nemean lion skin headdress, the scalp drawn over the crown of the head with the lion's jaws framing the face and the forepaws knotted at the neck. The facial features are rendered in a vigorous, archaising style characteristic of early Macedonian civic coinage, with a strong jaw and deeply set eye visible beneath the leonine headdress. The field is plain, with no legend or additional devices. |
