| Obverse description | Draped bust of Persephone facing left, her flowing hair bound with a reed wreath, rendered in fine Late Classical style. Three dolphins are disposed around the effigy in the field, alluding to the maritime character of Katane. The modeling of the goddess's features is naturalistic and delicate, with well-defined cheekbones and parted lips characteristic of Sicilian die-cutting of the period. |
