| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus Hellanios facing left, rendered in bold relief with finely detailed hair and laurel wreath. The portrait displays the characteristic archaic-to-early Hellenistic style of Sicilian bronze coinage, with well-modelled facial features. The legend AKPAΓANTINΩN curves around the periphery of the flan within a dotted border. The flan is slightly irregular, as typical of hammered Sicilian bronzes of this period. |
