Head of the river-god Achelöos right; И to left / Apollo, nude but for drapery over his right leg, seated left, holding bow in extended right hand, left arm resting on throne; plow to left. BCD Akarnania 14 var. (control marks); SNG Copenhagen –; de Luynes 1916 var. (same); Triton XII, lot 223 var. (control on rev.; same obv. die). EF, slight die shift, a few light marks.
