| Obverse description | Bare-headed and bearded bust of Mithridates I facing right, wearing a diadem tied at the nape of the neck with the ends falling behind. The portrait is rendered in a Hellenistic artistic tradition, with pronounced facial features including a strong jaw and full beard. The field is plain, with no surrounding legend. |
