| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a crested Attic helmet adorned with decorative scrollwork and a palmette above the visor. The goddess's hair falls in carefully rendered wavy locks beneath the helmet, and a serpent coils visibly at the neck guard. The portrait is executed in the refined late Hellenistic style characteristic of the New Style Athenian coinage, with finely modelled facial features. The field is plain and the coin is bordered by a beaded inner circle. |
