| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped and veiled female head in right profile, surmounted by a kalathos; the veil falls behind the neck in characteristic Sicilian style. A bee appears to the left of the portrait in the field, serving as a civic symbol of Hybla. The modeling of the facial features is rendered in a competent Hellenistic style, with careful attention to the drapery folds at the shoulder. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hybla Megala was one of several Sicilian cities bearing the Hybla name, a source of persistent confusion in ancient numismatics. This particular city, situated in the hinterland southeast of Catana, minted independently during the late third century BC — a period when Rome was consolidating control over Sicily following the First Punic War and most local bronzes were being squeezed out of circulation by Roman-allied issues. That any municipal coinage survived into the 210s here speaks to the administrative looseness of Rome's early Sicilian arrangements.
