| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, depicted in the idealized Hellenistic style characteristic of Alexander III coinage. The goddess wears a Corinthian helmet pushed back on her head, its bowl adorned with a coiled serpent and surmounted by an elaborate flamboyant crest rendered with exceptional detail. Her flowing curly hair escapes beneath the helmet's neckguard, framing her finely modeled profile. The facial features are rendered with high relief and naturalistic precision, displaying a strong brow, almond-shaped eye, and softly defined chin. The field is smooth and unlettered. |
