| Obverse description | Griffin sejant left, with raised forelegs, prominent folded wings rendered in finely engraved parallel ridges, and an eagle's head with open beak turned to the left. The creature's powerful leonine body rests above a ground line of schematic vegetation, the whole contained within a beaded border. The design is executed in high relief with careful attention to feather and musculature detail, characteristic of the accomplished die-cutting tradition of Abdera. |
