| Obverse description | Head of Persephone facing right, wearing a wreath of grain ears, rendered in the Syracusan artistic tradition. The portrait is set within a plain circular border, occupying the full field of the flan. The style reflects the late Syracusan bronze coinage of the final years of the independent city. The coin shows typical irregular flan characteristics of hammered bronze issues of this period. |
