| Obverse description | Bare head of a young male effigy facing left, rendered in a compact, stylized Thraco-Greek artistic tradition with flowing hair swept back behind the ear. The portrait is set within a prominent dotted (pearled) border that encircles the entire field, a characteristic decorative feature of Odrysian coinage of this period. The modelling of the facial features is bold and high-relief relative to the small module of the flan. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse. |
