| Obverse description | Forepart of a lion depicted in high relief, oriented to the right with the head dramatically turned back to the left in characteristic Cherronesian style. The mane is rendered with bold, deeply cut strokes, conveying vigorous musculature and naturalistic detail. The open jaws and alert expression emphasize the lion's predatory power. No legend or border is present; the design fills the flan with confident artistry typical of late Classical Thracian coinage. |
