Descrizione del dritto	Helmeted head of Athena facing left, rendered in fine high relief characteristic of late Syracusan coinage. The goddess wears a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, adorned with a prominent crest and a small figure decorating the bowl. Flowing locks of hair emerge beneath the helmet, falling in elegant waves across the neck and cheek. The facial features are finely modelled in the Hellenistic style, with a pronounced profile and naturalistic detail. No legend appears in the field.

Descrizione del rovescio	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.
