| Obverse description | Draped bust of an Amazon facing right, wearing a distinctive wolfskin headdress with the muzzle and ears of the animal visible above the brow. The hair falls in locks beneath the headdress, framing a finely rendered profile with a strong jawline and naturalistic features characteristic of Pontic Hellenistic engraving. The neck is bare and the truncation is unadorned. The field is plain, with no legend or inscription. |
