| Obverse description | Diademed and draped bust of Mithradates I facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic artistic tradition with notable realism. The king displays a short beard and moustache, with wavy hair swept back beneath the diadem, its ribbons falling behind the neck. The portrait is boldly modelled in high relief, conveying a strong royal presence. The effigy is contained within a circular border that frames the design close to the coin's edge. |
