| Obverse description | Diademed head of Hieron II facing left, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with elaborately curled hair bound by a broad royal diadem. The portrait is idealized yet individualizing, with strong facial features and a sensitively modeled profile. A bucranium (ox-skull) control mark appears in the right field. |
