| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing left, rendered in fine Sicilian style with flowing, richly detailed hair adorned with an olive wreath; long wavy locks fall behind the neck. In the right field, behind the head, a small amphora serves as a control symbol. The portrait displays the characteristic idealized beauty of late Classical Syracusan coinage, enclosed within a beaded border. |
