| Obverse description | Female head facing, rendered in a fine three-quarter frontal style characteristic of Tarsian coinage of the fourth century BC. The effigy is wreathed with vegetation, likely olive or laurel leaves, and wears a pendant earring visible to the left. The hair falls in loose waves framing the face, and a beaded necklace is discernible at the truncation. The rendering exhibits the confident draughtsmanship associated with the skilled celators of Cilician Tarsos. |
