| Obverse description | Archaic effigy of Athena facing right, rendered in the geometric Archaic style, wearing a crested Attic helmet adorned with a chevron and dot pattern along the bowl. The eye is depicted frontally in the characteristic Archaic convention, and the hair falls in stylized parallel strands beneath the helmet rim. The facial features are boldly modeled with a pronounced profile typical of late sixth-century Athenian coinage. |
