Obverse description Bare head of a youthful male figure, likely Apollo or a local deity, facing right in profile. The hair is rendered in fine wavy strands swept back from the forehead, with individual locks carefully delineated in the archaic Greek style. The facial features display the characteristic stylization of late archaic Ionian coinage, with a pronounced almond-shaped eye and subtly curved lips. The die work is compact and well-centered given the small module of the flan.
