| Obverse description | Bare head of Herakles facing right, crowned with the scalp of the Nemean lion, the beast's jaws framing the hero's brow and the paws knotted at the neck. The facial features are rendered in a vigorous Hellenistic style derived from the Lysippan tradition, with pronounced cheekbone, full lips, and a rounded chin. The mane of the lion skin falls behind the neck in deep, boldly modelled locks, characteristic of the coinage of the western Pontic Greek cities. |
