| Reverse description | Head of Athena in profile facing right, wearing a crested Attic helmet adorned with a band, hair rendered in fine parallel striated lines falling behind the ear in the Archaic convention. The facial features are finely modelled with a strong profile, prominent nose, and archaic expression. The bust is set within a plain circular border, with the field otherwise unadorned. The style is characteristic of early South Italian Greek coinage from Tarentum. |
