| Reverse description | Artemis standing left in full figure, depicted in the act of drawing an arrow from a quiver while holding a bow; a hound springs leftward at her side. The legend ΣΥΡΑΚΟΣΙΩΝ appears to the right of the central figure in Greek characters, while the abbreviated inscription ΥΑΣ is disposed to the left. The composition is typical of late Syracusan civic coinage, combining divine imagery with civic legend in a well-balanced field. |
