Stater: Head of Demeter (obverse); Barley (reverse)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The coin is silver with a dark patina. The obverse side shows the head of a woman facing left. She has curly hair and what appears to be a crown or leaves on her head. The reverse side shows an ear of grain or barley with a pitchfork-like object on the left and letters on the right. The coin appears to be ancient Greek. The background of the images is light gray.
