| Obverse description | Youthful bare head of Heracles in right profile, clad in the Nemean lion-skin headdress, the scalp drawn over the crown with the forelegs knotted at the throat; rendered in high relief with finely modelled facial features including a straight nose, slightly parted lips, and a strong jaw. The lion's mane falls in naturalistic curling locks behind the neck, characteristic of the Lysimachean-influenced die style associated with the Parium mint. |
