Obverse description Male head in left profile, likely depicting a bearded deity or local hero, with flowing hair rendered in broad, slightly rough strokes characteristic of Sicilian Punic bronze coinage. The facial features are boldly modelled in high relief, with a prominent brow, strong nose, and full beard. The style reflects the local Siculo-Punic artistic tradition of the western Sicilian mint of Ziz (Panormus). No visible legend or inscription surrounds the portrait in the field.
