| Obverse description | Youthful beardless head of Heracles in right profile, identifiable by the lion skin headdress whose scalp and forepaws are draped over the hero's crown and neck, rendered with fine curling locks of hair visible beneath. The modeling of the facial features is confident and deeply struck, characteristic of the posthumous Alexandrine series produced at Miletus. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, with a beaded border encircling the entire design field. |
