| Reverse description | A finely modelled laureate head of Apollo faces to the right, depicted with short-cropped hair in the manner of an athlete, reflecting a youthful and idealized Hellenic aesthetic. The ethnic legend ΚΑΤΑΝΑΙΟΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing city of Katane. The portrait is executed in the high-relief style characteristic of Sicilian die-engraving of the late 5th century BC. |
