| Obverse description | Warrior striding to the right in archaic style, depicted in profile and wearing a helmet, carrying a large round hoplon shield on his left arm with the boss prominently rendered in relief. The figure's musculature and posture reflect the early Classical Archaic artistic tradition. The field is plain and the flan is irregular, characteristic of early hammered silver coinage from Lesbos. |
