Beschrijving voorzijde Youthful male head facing right, depicted with flowing locks of hair rendered in the Sicilian style; the figure is likely Herakles or a local hero, wearing a lion-skin headdress whose paws are knotted at the neck. The portrait is boldly modeled in high relief, characteristic of late Classical Sicilian bronze coinage. The field is otherwise plain.

Aanvullende informatie

Agyrion, the inland Sikel town in central Sicily now identified with modern Agira, is best known to ancient sources as the birthplace of Diodorus Siculus — but its coinage predates the historian by centuries. This small bronze was struck during a period when the town maintained enough autonomy to produce its own civic issues, a window that effectively closed as Agathocles of Syracuse consolidated control over the interior during the late 4th century. CNS 10 is among the scarcer types from this mint, with few examples recorded in major collections.
