| Reverse description | Bearded head of the river god Gelas or a local male deity facing right, rendered with deeply engraved, wildly flowing hair and a full, elaborately striated beard conveying a powerful, rustic character. The head is set within a dotted border arc in the upper field, with the remainder of the field left plain. To the left, a large cornucopia or uncertain object — possibly a torch — occupies the field as a secondary symbol. The overall style is robust and vigorous, consistent with Sicilian bronze coinage of the Timoleontic era. |
