Obverse description Draped bust of a youthful deity, most likely Apollo or Helios, facing right, with elaborate wavy locks of hair radiating outward and adorned with a diadem or stephane. The high-relief portrait is rendered in the Hellenistic style characteristic of Carian civic coinage, with finely modeled facial features including a prominent nose, full lips, and a strong chin. No legend appears on the obverse, the field being entirely occupied by the impressive bust filling the flan.
