| Obverse description | Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in bold high relief with richly detailed flowing beard and hair; the wreath is composed of olive leaves arranged across the crown. The portrait exhibits the vigorous, slightly idealised style characteristic of late Sicilian Greek coinage produced under Punic occupation. A dotted border surrounds the field. The control mark ΦI appears in the left field. |
