| Obverse description | Slow quadriga proceeding to the right, driven by a charioteer standing in the car and holding the reins; above, Nike flying rightward crowns the horses with a wreath. The composition reflects the Early Classical style characteristic of Sicilian coinage of the period, with fine detail in the rendering of the horses and the winged figure. |
