| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing left, rendered in the classical Sicilian style with finely detailed hair bound by a laurel wreath. The portrait displays strong, idealised facial features characteristic of early Hellenistic die-cutting. The field is plain, and the flan exhibits the irregular edges typical of hammered bronze coinage of this period. A monogram or control mark 'NE' appears in the field. |
