| Obverse description | Head of a griffin facing right, rendered in archaic style with boldly modelled features. The beak is open, exposing a serrated lower jaw, and the large globular eye is prominently raised in high relief. The crest or knob atop the skull is clearly articulated, and the sinuous neck curves dynamically within the irregular flan. The design fills the field confidently, characteristic of early Phokaian electrum coinage. |
