| Obverse description | Archaic-style helmeted head of Athena facing right, rendered in high relief with distinctive almond-shaped eye characteristic of the early Athenian owl series. The goddess wears a crested Attic helmet adorned with a plain bowl and upright crest, along with a circular earring visible below the helmet rim. A prominent pellet appears above the forehead, just beneath the helmet's edge. The surface treatment reflects the transitional Archaic period style, with bold, stylized facial features typical of Athenian coinage circa 510–490 BC. |
