| Aversbeschreibung | Bare head of a local nymph facing right, rendered with finely detailed curling hair elaborately arranged in tight ringlets over the crown and temples. The portrait displays archaic-to-early-classical stylistic conventions characteristic of Sicilian coinage of the late fifth century BC. The flan is irregular and the coin is bordered by a dotted circle visible along the periphery. The effigy occupies the full field, with no visible legend or inscription on this face. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A hound, depicted in a dynamic crouching or pouncing posture, stands over a prostrate hare, with its head turned back to the left in the characteristic 'looking back' attitude common to Segestan coinage. A single pellet appears in the field before the hound, serving as the value mark denoting one uncia. The ethnic legend ΣEΓΕ – ΣΤΑ is inscribed in Greek characters distributed in the field around the central device. The composition is bold and naturalistic, reflecting the vigorous animal style prevalent in western Sicilian bronze coinage of the period. |

Segesta's monetary history is inseparable from its long conflict with Selinus, the neighboring Greek colony whose territorial disputes eventually drew Carthage into Sicily in 409 BC — the very year this series closes. The Segestans were Elymian, not Greek, and their adoption of coinage reflects calculated engagement with Greek commercial norms rather than cultural assimilation. That the reference fields are blank here is itself informative: Segestian bronze of this period remains poorly catalogued, with known specimens scattered across a handful of European collections and no consensus die study completed.
