| Obverse description | Boeotian shield rendered in high relief, with a convex central boss occupying the majority of the field. The characteristic cutout notches appear symmetrically on either side of the shield's upper edge, faithfully reproducing the distinctive form of the Boeotian military shield. The surface of the boss is polished and deeply convex, lending a bold, three-dimensional quality to the design. The surrounding rim of the shield is rendered in fine incuse relief, following the irregular flan shape typical of hammered coinage of this period. |
