Obverse description Youthful head of Heracles facing right, depicted beardless and wearing the Nemean lion-skin headdress, with the scalp drawn over the crown and the forepaws knotted at the throat. The portrait is rendered in high relief with carefully engraved curling hair visible beneath the headdress. The flan is bordered by a beaded or dotted inner circle. The modelling of the facial features reflects the Macedonian die-cutting tradition derived from the original Alexander III coinage type.
