| Obverse description | Helmeted and draped bust of King Heliokles II facing right, wearing a crested Macedonian-style kausia helmet with cheek guards. The king's bust is rendered in the Hellenistic portrait tradition, with detailed drapery visible at the shoulder. The Greek royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΔΙΚΑΙΟΥ ΗΛΙΟΚΛΕΟΥΣ ('of the Just King Heliokles') surrounds the portrait, with a monogram visible in the right field. |
