| Reverse description | Helmeted head of Athena in right profile, wearing a Corinthian helmet with a prominent crest and cheek-pieces pushed up, rendered in the severe archaic style with finely engraved hair visible beneath the helmet brim. The facial features display the characteristic archaic treatment, with an almond-shaped eye, strong jaw, and slightly parted lips. Wavy locks of hair fall beneath the helmet along the neck. The entire design is set within a recessed incuse square, a hallmark of early Greek coinage technique, with the relief portrait contrasting sharply against the flat, polished interior of the square punch. |
