| Obverse description | Facing head of the youthful Arethusa, rendered in high relief, with flowing curly hair framing the face and bound by a wreath of grain or reeds; the treatment is characteristic of the refined Syracusan die-cutting tradition of the late fourth century BC. The face is presented frontally, slightly turned, with naturalistic modeling of the features. The field is largely plain, with no visible legend. |
