Obverse description The Keryneian Hind depicted in full gallop to the right, rendered in archaic relief with forelegs extended and hindquarters lowered in a dynamic running pose. The animal's body is finely modeled with naturalistic musculature characteristic of early Arcadian coinage. The design occupies the full flan, set against a plain, slightly granular field. The type alludes to the mythological connection of Psophis with the labor of Herakles and the sacred hind of Artemis.
