| Obverse description | Zeus Lykaios enthroned to left, his body draped, holding a long scepter in his raised left hand; to the left of the throne, an eagle depicted in flight to left with wings spread. The composition reflects the archaic artistic conventions of the Peloponnesian region, with the deity rendered in a formal, frontal-throne pose characteristic of early classical Greek coinage. |
