| Reverse description | A biga — a two-horse chariot — depicted in full gallop to the left, with the charioteer leaning forward and brandishing a long spear or goad, rendered with vigorous movement. Above the horses, a partial ethnic legend appears, while below the exergual line the inscription reads ΣΙΚΕΛΙΩΤΑΝ, identifying the coin as an issue of the Siceliots. A control mark or letter appears in the upper field above the horses. The composition is energetic and displays the confident engraving tradition of Sicilian mint workers. |
