| Obverse description | Three-quarter facing head of Hermes, turned slightly to the left, rendered in fine archaic-transitional style with naturalistic modeling of the facial features. The god is depicted youthful and beardless, with wavy locks of hair falling on either side of the face. He wears the characteristic petasos, the broad-brimmed traveler's hat associated with Hermes, adorned along the brim with a row of small pellets. The portrait fills the flan with commanding presence, exhibiting the high artistic quality characteristic of Ainean coinage of this period. |
