| Obverse description | Head of the local nymph Segesta facing left, rendered in fine archaic-to-early classical style with elaborately striated hair swept back and gathered behind the neck, wearing a small pendant earring. The facial features are delicately modeled with a straight nose and subtly parted lips. The ethnic legend ΣΕΓΕΣΤΑΖΙΒ is partially distributed around the periphery of the field. |
