| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with deeply modelled, flowing locks of hair and a full beard. The laurel wreath is boldly struck with prominent leaves and berries visible atop the cranium. The portrait displays strong, expressive facial features characteristic of late Hellenistic civic coinage from Asia Minor. The field is plain, and the coin is bordered by a dotted bead-and-reel inner circle. |
