| Aanvullende informatie |
Leontini struck this litra in the decade following the expulsion of Hieron I's garrison, when the city reasserted its independence from Syracusan control after 476 BC. The emission belongs to a period of intense civic self-assertion among the Chalcidian colonies of eastern Sicily, each minting on their own authority as Syracusan hegemony temporarily contracted. Leontini's silver issues of this period are among the smallest and most technically demanding of Sicilian archaic coinage — the dies cut with a precision disproportionate to the coin's mass.
