Drachm

正面描述	A rooster stands in left profile within a beaded border, rendered in fine archaic relief. The bird is depicted with prominent upswept tail feathers, a well-defined comb and wattle, and sturdy legs resting upon a ground line composed of pellets. The feathering of the wing and body is articulated with careful engraved detail, reflecting the accomplished die-cutting style of early Sicilian coinage. The rooster served as the civic emblem of Himera, whose name was associated in antiquity with the Greek word for day, making the cock a natural and emblematic device for the city.

背面描述	A shallow incuse square dominates the reverse, divided into four triangular sections by a raised mill-sail or pinwheel pattern, a design characteristic of early archaic Greek coinage derived from Aeginetan influence. The incuse field is further articulated by a segmented linear border framing the central device, creating a geometric and visually striking composition. The surface within the incuse retains a slightly granular texture consistent with early hammered coinage technique. No legend or inscription is present, as was typical for Himeran coinage of this early archaic period.
