| Obverse description | Lion attacking a bull to the right, depicted in high relief with the lion's mane rendered in elaborate detail; the lion bites into the back of the kneeling bull while grasping it with its forepaws. The bull's head turns upward in a posture of distress. The scene is framed by a fine beaded border. The legend ΝΙ appears in the lower exergual area, likely representing the initial letters of the responsible magistrate or mint official. |
