| Obverse description | Head of Hera facing right, depicted in fine archaic-to-classical style, wearing an elaborate stephane (crown) adorned with decorative elements, her hair rendered in flowing locks swept back from the face. The goddess displays serene, idealized facial features characteristic of the Elean artistic tradition. The letters F-A (digamma-alpha), the ethnic abbreviation for Elis, appear in the lower field flanking the neck on either side. |
