| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing left, the head of Persephone is rendered in fine Syracusan style, adorned with a wreath of grain ears, a pendant earring, and a pearl necklace. Behind the neck, a cornucopiae serves as a secondary device in the field. The portrait exhibits the characteristic idealized beauty associated with late Syracusan coinage of the early third century BC. The legend ΣΥΡΑΚΟΣΙΩΝ is inscribed in Greek characters, denoting civic authority. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A prancing biga moves to the right, driven by Nike who holds a kentron and reins with controlled authority. Above the composition, a crescent moon occupies the upper field, while the control marks Φ and Θ appear above and below the horses respectively. The exergue bears the magistrate's inscription ΕΠΙ ΙΚΕΤΑ, identifying the issue with the strategos Hiketas II. The dynamic chariot scene reflects the vigorous die-cutting tradition of Syracusan coinage in this transitional period. |
