| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Demeter facing right, her flowing hair bound with a wreath of grain and secured with a ribbon, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with naturalistic modelling. Long, wavy locks fall about the neck, and the facial profile is elegantly portrayed with a delicate eye and softly defined features. The flan is irregular and slightly cracked, characteristic of the emergency coinage struck during the Second Punic War period. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse field. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two stalks of barley arranged symmetrically, each bearing a full ear at the top, with leaves extending to the right — the civic emblem of Metapontion, celebrated for its fertile grain-producing region. In the right field, a crossed torch is depicted, serving as a subsidiary symbol. The ethnic legend ΜΕΤΑ appears in Greek characters, identifying the issuing city. The overall composition is typical of the Metapontine coinage tradition, adapted here for the fractional Punic-influenced shekel denomination issued during Hannibalic occupation. |
