| Obverse description | Head of a nymph facing left, her hair elaborately dressed with a wreath of laurel or grain, falling in loose curls behind the neck. The portrait is rendered in a refined early South Italian style, with delicate facial features and a graceful, slightly idealized profile. A dolphin or bird appears below the neck truncation, serving as a symbol associated with the local coinage tradition. The die-cutting displays accomplished craftsmanship characteristic of Campanian mint production of the early fourth century BC. The Greek letter gamma (Γ) appears as a control mark in the field. |
