Reverse description A lit sacrificial altar decorated with laurel garlands, surmounted by two bovine horns, rendered in careful detail. Palm branches flank the altar on either side, serving as symbols of victory and sanctity. The ethnic legend ΚΙΜΙΣΣΑΙΩΝ is disposed around the design, identifying the issuing community of Kimissa. The composition is well-centered within the irregular flan, reflecting typical hammered coinage of the Sicilian interior in the late Classical period.
