| Obverse description | Draped bust of Artemis facing right, her hair elaborately rendered in wavy strands swept back from the forehead and gathered behind. A distinctive trident earring is visible at the ear, serving as a civic emblem of Massalia. The portrait is rendered in the naturalistic Hellenistic style characteristic of Greek colonial coinage from southern Gaul, with fine die-engraving evident in the facial features and hair detailing. |
