| 背面描述 | Youthful head of the river-god Amenanos facing left, with a small horn above his brow denoting his divine, fluvial nature, and a tainia binding his hair. Two fish are depicted before his face and a crayfish appears behind his head, all alluding to the freshwater river at Catana. The god's name, AMENANOS, is inscribed around the field in Greek characters. The engraving displays the sensitive, naturalistic portraiture characteristic of Sicilian coinage of the late fifth century BC. |

Katane's autonomy as a mint was abruptly terminated when Dionysios I of Syracuse seized the city around 403–402 BC, expelled its population wholesale, and resettled it with his mercenaries. Coinage from the immediately preceding years — this issue among them — represents the last independent output of the Katanean mint before a hiatus that lasted decades. The city would not strike under its own name again until after Timoleon's campaigns in the 340s.
