| Obverse description | Veiled and draped bust of Isis facing right, adorned with a wreath of grain ears and surmounted by the distinctive Isis crown (horns enclosing a solar disk) set upon a taenia. The drapery falls in fine folds over the shoulder, rendered in the Hellenistic artistic tradition. The portrait is executed in low relief, characteristic of Seleucid bronze coinage of the period. No legend appears in the field. |
