| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in bold relief with characteristic curling locks and a full beard; the laurel wreath is clearly delineated across the brow. A long scepter is visible behind the head, extending diagonally into the left field. The portrait displays the vigorous, somewhat provincial style typical of late Republican Sicilian municipal bronze coinage. |

| Reverse description | A tetrastyle temple depicted in three-quarter perspective, showing four columns supporting a triangular pediment ornamented with an acroterion; the structure rests on a stepped podium or stylobate. The ethnic legend ΠΑΝΟΡΜΙΤΑΝ is distributed horizontally across the field flanking the temple, with the control letters C and D prominently positioned in the lower exergual area, separated by a central dot. The overall composition is well-centered and characteristic of the civic bronze issues of Panormus during the late Roman Republican period. |
