Obverse description Forepart of a wolf at bay advancing left, rendered in bold high relief with finely detailed musculature and articulated paws. The animal's jaws are open wide in an aggressive snarl, its eye rendered as a raised pellet, and its haunches raised prominently to the right. The wolf, sacred to Apollo and emblematic of Argos, is depicted with characteristic archaic energy and naturalistic precision. The field is plain, with no border or legend, the design filling the flan to the edge.
