Obverse description Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in Hellenistic style with flowing hair cascading behind the neck. The wreath of laurel is depicted in low relief, characteristic of southern Italian bronze coinage of the period. Two pellets serving as the mark of value for the sextans denomination are positioned in the field behind the head. The portrait is set within a plain border of dots. The flan is slightly irregular, consistent with hammered bronze production of Bruttian civic coinage.
