| Obverse description | Youthful head of Herakles facing right, wearing the Nemean lion skin headdress, the scalp knotted beneath the chin with the paws draped over the shoulders. The portrait is rendered in high relief with finely modelled facial features, exhibiting the characteristic idealized style associated with the Lysippan tradition. The field is plain, with no legend or additional devices, in accordance with the standard Alexandrine coinage type. |
