| Obverse description | Diademed head of Mithradates VI Eupator in youthful right-facing profile, rendered in the Hellenistic portrait tradition with idealized features evoking both Alexander the Great and Herakles. The hair falls in thick, wavy locks swept back from the forehead and cascading behind the ear, framed by a royal diadem with trailing ends visible at the neck. The portrait is executed with considerable artistic refinement, conveying regal authority through the strong jawline and sharp, idealized facial features. A monogram appears in the left field behind the head. |
