| Obverse description | Heroic figure of Herakles striding vigorously to right in the field, clad in the Nemean lion's skin draped over his shoulders and head; his raised right arm brandishes a knotted club overhead while his extended left hand grasps a bow. The style reflects the archaic Cypriot artistic tradition, with bold, energetic modeling of the figure typical of fifth-century BC Phoenician-influenced coinage. |
