| Obverse description | Youthful head of Dionysus facing left, rendered in fine archaic-to-classical Greek style, the hair elaborately braided and drawn back, interwoven with a prominent ivy wreath bearing a large ivy berry at the crown. The facial features are finely modelled with a delicate profile, almond-shaped eye, and softly parted lips. Flowing ringlets descend behind the ear and along the neck, conveying the god's characteristic lush and sensuous aspect. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, with the design well-centred and occupying nearly the full field. |
