| Obverse description | Heroic head of Herakles facing right, wearing the Nemean lion skin headdress, the scalp rendered with finely detailed feathered texturing across the crown and neck; the face is youthful and idealized in the Lysippan tradition, with strongly modeled features. The lion's paws are knotted at the throat, and the mane falls naturalistically around the neck. The field is plain, with no legend or exergual inscription on this side. |
