| Obverse description | Veiled female head facing right, hair secured in a band, adorned with a single-pendant earring; a cross-headed torch appears in the right field. The portrait is rendered in the refined late Classical style characteristic of Metapontine coinage of the late fifth century BC, with delicate facial features and carefully articulated drapery of the veil. |
