Obverse description Bare male head facing right, rendered in a schematic Celto-Ligurian style with stylized hair depicted as a series of short, curved locks radiating from the crown. The facial features are summarily executed, characteristic of the local Ligurian coinage tradition derived from Massalian prototypes. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with no encircling legend.
