| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing left, wearing a Corinthian-style helmet pushed back on the head, its crest rendered in relief. The goddess's facial features are rendered in the late Hellenistic provincial style characteristic of Bruttian coinage. A beaded border encircles the design within the coin's irregular flan. |
