| Obverse description | Facing right, the draped head of Demeter rendered in fine relief, adorned with a sphendone (cloth headband) and a pendant earring. Behind the neck, the Greek magistrate's inscription ΟΔΥΛ appears in the field, identifying the issuing authority. The portraiture reflects the refined Late Classical style characteristic of Metapontine coinage of the fourth century BC, with carefully articulated facial features and flowing hair. |
