| Reverse description | Magnificent head of the nymph Arethusa facing right, her hair drawn back and secured in a knot with a band at the nape; she is adorned with a triple-pendant earring and a linear necklace bearing a frontal pendant. The legend ΣY-PA-KOΣIΩN is disposed around the periphery of the field, with four dolphins swimming in the surrounding space — a celebrated Syracusan type emblematic of the city's relationship with the sea and its patron nymph. |
