| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the characteristic Syracusan style of the late fourth century BC. The deity's hair is elaborately wreathed with laurel, with fine strands radiating from the crown and falling in loose locks about the neck. The portrait displays a strong, idealised profile typical of the Agathokles coinage. A dotted border or plain rim frames the design, with traces of the Greek legend partially visible around the periphery of the flan. |
