| Obverse description | Male head facing right, rendered in fine archaic Greek style, with wavy hair bound by a wreath of laurel or olive, the strands carefully delineated. The facial features are well modeled, exhibiting the characteristic stylistic conventions of South Italian (Lucanian) coinage of the late 4th century BC. A dotted border frames the field around the bust. The letter V, denoting the denomination of 5 asses, appears in the left field. |
