Obverse description Helmeted head of Athena in right profile, struck in the Athenian style, wearing a crested Attic helmet. The facial features, though worn, retain the characteristic archaic rendering typical of fifth-to-fourth century BC Athenian-influenced coinage. The flan is irregular, as is characteristic of this small hammered silver issue from Gaza.
