| Reverse description | A swift quadriga driven at full gallop to the left, the charioteer leaning forward with reins extended in dynamic control. A Nike flies above the scene from the right, extending a wreath to crown the victorious charioteer. Beneath the horses' hooves, a groundline of exergual dots separates the main scene from the ethnic legend KATANAIΩN inscribed in the lower field. The composition displays the energetic, masterful style characteristic of Sicilian coinage of the late fifth century BC. |
