Obverse description	Highly abstracted and devolved obverse derived ultimately from the classical wreathed head of Apollo. The design has been reduced to a series of elongated oval pellets arranged in diagonal clusters, representing vestigial hair strands, separated by incuse lines suggestive of the original laurel wreath branches. A prominent diagonal bar bisects the field, flanked by smaller groupings of oval bosses. The treatment is characteristic of the late Durotrigan series, in which figurative imagery has been entirely supplanted by bold, abstract relief elements. No legend or inscription is present, the field being otherwise plain.
