| Obverse description | Draped bust of Demeter facing left, her head crowned with a wreath of grain ears, a hallmark of her divine role as goddess of the harvest. She wears a triple-pendant earring and a pearl necklace, rendered with fine detail characteristic of late Classical Italiote coinage. The portrait displays a serene, idealized treatment consistent with the artistic conventions of Magna Graecia workshops of the early Hellenistic period. The field is plain, with no visible legend on this side. |
