| Obverse description | Diademed bust of Demetrius II Nicator facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic portrait tradition typical of Seleucid royal coinage. The effigy displays the characteristic royal diadem tied at the nape of the neck. The heavily encrusted bronze surfaces obscure finer detail, though the profile portrait remains discernible. The field is plain, with no visible border dots retained on this specimen. |
