| Obverse description | Diademed head of Antiochos IV Epiphanes facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic portrait tradition with finely detailed hair falling in locks behind the neck. The royal diadem is tied at the back with characteristic floating ends. The portrait displays a youthful, idealized effigy with strong facial features. The field is surrounded by a border of dots interspersed with fillets, a distinguishing feature of Seleucid royal coinage of this period. |
