Obverse Type: Enthroned cult image of Hermes Perpheraius, profile to the left; supporting the right arm of the throne, a small sphinx; in left field, a kantharos
Commentary: As May 438 (same obv. die). The left arm of the throne, which would have to be shown crossing in front of the cult image's body, seems to have been deliberately omitted on all reverses of this series.
