| Obverse description | Facing right, the youthful head of Dionysos is rendered in fine Hellenistic style, the deity crowned with an ivy wreath bound by a taenia. The hair is partially gathered into a queue at the nape of the neck, with loose tresses falling gracefully along the back. The modelling of the face reflects the idealized, soft features characteristic of Dionysiac iconography in Thracian coinage of the Hellenistic period. The field is plain, with no visible legend on the obverse. |
