| Obverse description | Head of the deified Herakles facing right, wearing the Nemean lion scalp headdress, the paws knotted at the throat; the hair rendered in bold, tightly wound curls characteristic of the Lysimachean and post-Alexandrine tradition. The portrait is boldly struck in high relief on an irregularly shaped flan, with the lion's mane splaying prominently across the left field. No legend appears on the obverse. |
