| Obverse description | Turreted, draped, and veiled bust of Tyche facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style. The mural crown is prominently depicted with battlements, symbolizing the city's fortifications. The hair is arranged beneath the veil in loose locks, and drapery falls softly over the shoulder. The portrait is executed in high relief with naturalistic modeling of the facial features. The field is plain with no surrounding legend. |
