| Obverse description | Nude youthful Herakles seated to right upon a rocky outcrop draped with a lion skin, his right arm resting upon a club set to ground and his left hand raising a rhyton. The figure is rendered in archaic Cypriot style with careful attention to musculature. The scene is set within a linear square border characteristic of Cypriot coinage of this period. |
