Obverse description Celticised laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in a bold, stylised barbarian interpretation of the Greek prototype. The laureate wreath is depicted with pronounced, rounded leaves arranged in a decorative pattern across the crown, reflecting the Celtic artistic tradition of abstraction. The facial features are schematically rendered with a large, prominent eye in the field, a broad jaw, and a short neck, all characteristic of the Patraean-type coinage imitated by the Agrianes. A beaded border encircles the coin's outer edge.
