| Obverse description | Eagle in flight to right, wings fully spread, seizing a hare in its talons and bending its head downward to grasp the prey with its beak. The composition is rendered in high relief on an irregular flan, with the predatory scene occupying the full field in a bold, archaic naturalistic style characteristic of Elean coinage of the Classical period. |
