Obverse description Facing gorgoneion (Medusa head) depicted in archaic style, rendered full-face at center, with wide staring eyes, broad nose, and protruding tongue flanked by tusks. Coiling serpents frame the head on either side, their bodies intertwining around the periphery of the flan. The relief is bold and deeply struck, characteristic of the archaizing artistic tradition employed at Parion during the late Classical period.
