| Obverse description | Diademed and draped bust of Ptolemy V facing right, wearing a beaded diadem tied through the hair with flowing locks rendered in fine Hellenistic style; a pearl earring is visible at the ear, and the royal aegis is partially visible at the lower left shoulder. The bust is rendered with accomplished portraiture typical of the Alexandrian mint, conveying both youth and regal authority. The field is plain, and the design is enclosed within a dotted border. |
