| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing left, rendered in a robust Hellenistic style with thick curling locks of hair and beard characteristic of Sicilian bronze coinage of the mid-third century BC. The facial features are boldly modelled, with a prominent brow and strong jaw, occupying the greater part of the flan. The laurel wreath is rendered in low relief, its individual leaves discernible across the crown. The flan is irregular, and the surfaces show an olive-green patina consistent with ancient bronze. |
