| Obverse description | Facing head of Hermes rendered in fine archaic-to-classical transitional style, depicted full face with wavy hair swept back and secured by a broad taenia or diadem adorned with a row of pellets along the upper border. The god's features are rendered with characteristic Thracian die-engraving quality, displaying large almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose, and slightly parted lips framed by loose curling locks falling to either side. The portrait fills nearly the entire flan, with no surrounding legend, the plain field lending emphasis to the sculptural relief of the effigy. |
