| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing left, the veiled head of Kore-Persephone is depicted in fine Hellenistic style, crowned with a wreath of grain leaves symbolizing her dominion over the harvest. She wears a triple pendant earring and a pearl necklace, rendered with careful detail. Behind the portrait, an owl stands to the left, serving as an emblematic device within the field. The modeling of the face reflects the accomplished die-cutting tradition of late Syracusan coinage during the Fifth Democracy period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents Nike as charioteer, holding a goad in her extended right hand and gathering the reins in her left, as she drives a vigorous quadriga galloping at full pace to the right. The composition conveys dynamic movement characteristic of the finest Syracusan coin art. Above the scene, a monogram composed of the letters ΑΡΚ appears in the upper field, serving as a magistrate's or engraver's mark. Along the ground line, the tiny letters ΛΥ are inscribed, forming a secondary control mark. The full ethnic legend ΣΥΡΑΚΟΣΙΩΝ runs within the field, affirming the civic authority of the issuer. |
