| Reverse description | Two large pellets in the field, serving as value marks denoting the hexas denomination, flanked above by the ethnic legend ΕΓΕΣΤΑ divided as ΕΓΕ above and ΣΤΑ below in archaic Greek characters. The inscription is distributed around the pellets within a plain recessed die, the lettering rendered in a bold, early Greek epigraphic style characteristic of Sicel coinage of the late fifth century BC. |
