| Obverse description | Facing gorgoneion depicted in high relief, filling the entire field. The visage displays wild, serpentine hair radiating outward around the face, with deeply set eyes rendered frontally, a broad flat nose, and a slightly open mouth. The treatment is archaic in character yet vigorous in execution, consistent with late fifth-century Sicilian bronze coinage. No legend or inscription appears on this side. |
