Obverse description Helmeted head of Athena facing left, depicted in high relief in the Greek style, wearing a Attic helmet with a prominent crest and cheekpieces raised. The facial features are finely modeled with a strong profile, reflecting the influence of late Classical Greek die-engraving. The coin flan is characteristically irregular, as typical of Lycian dynastic silver coinage of this period.
