| Obverse description | Nude ithyphallic satyr depicted in three-quarter facing view, kneeling in a running pose with legs bent. The figure has a bearded face with wild, tousled hair and displays the characteristic bestial vitality associated with Dionysiac imagery. The right arm is extended forward holding a kantharos (wine vessel), while the left arm trails behind grasping a vine shoot or drapery. The bold, compact relief is characteristic of the archaic-to-classical transitional style of Thasian coinage. |
