| Reverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing left in majestic high relief, his flowing hair elaborately rendered with fine incised curls bound by an olive wreath; a tendril with berries appears before the face, and a reed or laurel branch is visible behind the neck. The legend ΚΑΤΑΝΑΙΩΝ curves above in large Greek letters along the upper field. The portrait exemplifies the refined naturalistic style of the master engraver Euainetos, displaying exceptional artistic quality characteristic of the finest Sicilian coinage of the period. |
