| Obverse description | Bare-headed and diademed portrait bust of Antiochos IV Epiphanes facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic royal tradition with finely modelled physiognomy and characteristic curling hair swept back from the forehead. The diadem, a plain fillet tied at the nape of the neck with trailing ends, is visible above the brow. The portrait displays the bold, slightly idealized style associated with the Antioch mint workshops, with a strong jawline and well-defined facial features. The field is plain, enclosed within a smooth raised border. |
