| Reverse description | A four-spoke wheel occupies the central field, a longstanding civic emblem of Syracuse. In each of the two upper quarters flanking the wheel's upper spokes, the ethnic abbreviation of the city is inscribed in Greek characters in abridged form. In each of the two lower quarters, a dolphin is depicted, reinforcing the maritime symbolism consistent across both sides of the coin and typical of Syracusan bronze issues of this period. |
