| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with long, wavy locks falling to the shoulder and a detailed laurel wreath crowning the brow. The youthful, idealized visage displays sensitive engraving with well-defined facial features characteristic of late Hellenistic die-cutting. A lituus (augural staff) appears behind the neck, serving as a divine attribute of Apollo. The portrait is set against a smooth, unadorned field with no visible legend on this side. |
