    This hemi-litron was issued during the reign of Agathokles from ca. 317-289 BC and portrays an image of Artemis or Diana, the Goddess of War -notice her quiver of arrows behind her neck. The legend Soteira translates as "saviour" The winged thunderbolt on the reverse with the monarchs' Agathokles name and title is a famous design.

    Isn't that a thunderbolt on the reverse? Not a sea creature, which is the current theme? Or is that some kind of weird mythological sea creature I'm unfamiliar with?

    Definitely fits the bill. Now it’s your turn to pick a new theme if you want, or we can continue with sea creatures.
