| Obverse description | Bust of Kore Soteira facing left, her hair adorned with two grain ears and bound in a sphendone covered by a veil. She wears a single-pendant earring and a necklace, rendered in the refined late Classical style characteristic of Asia Minor coinage. The inscription ΣΩΤΕΙΡΑ appears in the field, identifying the deity as Savior. The portraiture displays careful attention to drapery and divine adornment, consistent with Hellenistic artistic conventions of the 4th century BC. |
