| Beschrijving voorzijde | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, rendered in fine Sicilian Greek style. The goddess wears a Corinthian helmet with a prominent crest, the bowl of the helmet fitting closely over the brow and cheek-guards partially framing the face. Locks of hair curl beneath the helmet at the nape of the neck, and the facial features are rendered with confident, naturalistic modelling characteristic of late Classical Sicilian coinage. The field is plain, with no inscriptions or subsidiary devices. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ameselon was a small Sikel settlement in the interior of Sicily whose precise location remains debated — most scholars place it somewhere in the Enna hinterland, though no definitive archaeological site has been confirmed. The city's bronze coinage is exceptionally rare, and the issuing authority was almost certainly disrupted or absorbed during the upheavals following Timoleon's reorganization of Sicilian polities after 339 BC. The date range assigned to this type spans a full century and a half, reflecting honest uncertainty rather than established chronology.
