| Obverse description | Head of Athena facing left, wearing a crested Attic helmet adorned with raised decorative elements. The goddess's facial features are rendered in the archaic-transitional style characteristic of late fifth-century Syracusan bronze coinage. The helmet crest falls gracefully behind the head, with fine engraved lines depicting the plume. The portrait fills the flan with minimal surrounding field, consistent with the compact format of the hemilitron denomination. |
