| Obverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing left, wearing a laureate Corinthian helmet adorned with an olive wreath. The goddess's hair falls in loose locks below the helmet rim, and a dolphin is positioned in the left field, with a second dolphin appearing to the right. The legend ΣΥΡΑ arcs around the upper field, identifying the issuing city of Syracuse. The portrait is rendered in the robust, high-relief style characteristic of Syracusan bronze coinage of the late fifth to mid-fourth century BC. |
