| Obverse description | A lion recumbent to right, rendered in archaic relief with musculature boldly indicated; the beast's body is shown in profile with the head turned slightly, occupying the full field of the flan. The style is characteristic of early Cypriot coinage from Amathus, displaying the vigorous and somewhat stylized treatment of animal forms typical of the mid-fifth century BC. |
