Tetradrachm

正面描述	Bearded charioteer, depicted in archaic Greek style, drives a slow-moving quadriga to the right, holding the reins with both hands; above the horses, Nike advances right in flight to crown the victorious team with a wreath. The composition fills the broad flan in the early Sicilian tradition, with the horses rendered in careful detail and the chariot wheel visible at left.

附加信息	Gela's tetradrachms from this decade almost certainly postdate the Battle of Himera in 480 BC, after which the tyrant Gelon — who had already relocated to Syracuse — left Gela under his brother Hieron's administration. The city retained its own active mint, and issues from this period reflect the prosperity generated by Carthaginian war spoils distributed among the victorious Sicilian Greeks. Jenkins' die study places this piece within a sequence showing gradual stylistic refinement consistent with a single engraver's hand across multiple obverse dies.
