| Obverse description | Diademed head of the deified Alexander III (the Great) facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed flowing hair and the distinctive curling horn of Ammon emerging above the ear, asserting his divine status as son of Zeus-Ammon. The portrait displays idealized Hellenistic workmanship with strong facial features, a prominent brow, and elegantly styled locks cascading behind the neck. The coin is bordered by a fine beaded (dotted) border visible along the right rim. No legend appears on the obverse, the divine portrait serving as the sole identification of authority. |
