| Beschrijving voorzijde | Youthful male head facing right, rendered in fine high relief in the Syracusan artistic tradition, with short, tightly curled hair framing the face and a bare neck. The effigy is naturalistically modeled, reflecting the accomplished die-cutting characteristic of late fifth- to early fourth-century Sicilian coinage. The partial legend ΣYPA appears vertically in the left field, identifying the issuing city. The flan is slightly irregular, as is typical of hammered gold coinage of this period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A horse in full gallop to the left, depicted with dynamic energy and anatomical precision, its mane rendered in careful detail and all four legs extended in a flying gallop pose. The field is plain and unencumbered, focusing attention on the powerful equine motif, a prestigious symbol closely associated with Syracusan coinage and the Sicilian aristocratic tradition. The legend ΣYPAKOΣIΩN appears along the lower exergual area, denoting the authority of the Syracusans. The reverse die work is characteristic of the accomplished engravers active under the patronage of Dionysius I. |
