| Obverse description | Draped bust of Demeter facing right, her hair elaborately dressed and adorned with a wreath of grain ears and leaves, with long flowing locks falling across the neck and shoulder. A delicate earring is visible at the ear. The high-relief portrait is rendered in the refined Late Classical style characteristic of Metapontine die-engraving, with fine detail in the facial features and the intricate coiffure. The field is plain, with no legend present on the obverse. |
