| Beschrijving voorzijde | A biga mule facing right occupies the central field, rendered with muscular anatomical detail characteristic of early Sicilian die engraving. The animals are depicted in vigorous motion, their forelegs raised, within a beaded border. Below the chariot group, a decorative exergual band features an ornate floral or wave scroll motif, framed by dotted lines. The composition reflects the influence of the great Syracusan coinage tradition on the workshops of Katane during the early Classical period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, is depicted striding to the left in three-quarter view, wearing a flowing chiton with detailed drapery folds. She extends her right arm forward, holding a wreath or fillet, while her large spread wings rise dramatically behind her. The Greek legend KATANAION is inscribed around the field, with the letter H (denoting the denomination) visible in the left field. The whole is enclosed within a beaded border, and the high-relief carving exemplifies the masterful Early Classical style of Sicilian mint engravers. |
