| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in high relief with masterful archaic-classical style. The god's long, curling beard and flowing hair are rendered with fine detail, conveying divine majesty and authority. A thick olive wreath crowns the head, its leaves clearly articulated. The portrait fills the flan with commanding presence, consistent with the celebrated Elean artistic tradition associated with the sanctuary workshops. |
