| Obverse description | Land tortoise (Testudo graeca) rendered in high relief, viewed dorsally, centered in the field. The carapace is depicted with meticulous naturalistic detail, showing the characteristic segmented scutes arranged in a symmetrical pattern across the domed shell. The head, four legs, and tail are fully visible, extending outward from beneath the carapace. The overall artistic treatment reflects the mature Aeginetan engraving tradition, with strong sculptural modeling and confident die cutting. The surrounding field is flat and unadorned. |
