| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a Corinthian helmet adorned with a coiled serpent on the bowl and a flowing crest rendered with fine detail. The goddess is depicted with idealized Classical features, her hair falling in loose curls beneath the helmet's cheekpieces. The overall style is characteristic of the high-quality die engraving associated with Macedonian royal coinage of the late 4th century BC. |
