| Obverse description | Facing head of a bull rendered in archaic style, occupying the full field of the flan. The features are boldly modeled in high relief, with the broad muzzle, nostrils, and wide-set eyes characteristic of early Delphic coinage. The design reflects the archaic Greek artistic convention of frontal animal portraiture, with the head filling the irregular hammered flan. |
