| Obverse description | Youthful male head facing right, likely representing Apollo or a heroic deity, with elaborately rendered curling hair swept back from the brow and secured by a taenia or diadem. The facial features are rendered in fine archaic-to-early Classical style, with a straight nose, slightly parted lips, and a sensitively modeled cheek. The neck is draped, and the portrait fills the flan with confident, high-relief workmanship characteristic of early Macedonian gold coinage. No legend appears on the obverse; the field is plain. |
