| Obverse description | Janiform jugate female heads facing left and right, both wearing a distinctive layered stephane or tiara-like headdress with incised horizontal ridges and a central palmette crest rendered in bold relief. The faces are rendered in a Hellenistic idiom of southern Italian die-cutting, with softly modeled features, pronounced chins, and tightly braided or coiled hair visible beneath the headdress. No legend or border is present; the design fills the flan in a confident, unframed composition characteristic of Bruttian coinage of the Hannibalic period. |
