| Obverse description | The centaur Chiron, mythological tutor of heroes, depicted advancing to the right in a dynamic stride, rendered in relief with the human torso erect and the equine body in motion. The figure holds a lyre in the right hand, a characteristic attribute identifying Chiron as teacher of the arts. The design is set within a plain, slightly irregular circular field consistent with the hammered coinage tradition of the region. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse. |
