| Beschrijving keerzijde | Horse's head facing left, depicted in three-quarter view within a shallow incuse circle, rendered with considerable naturalism and vigour characteristic of Punic-Sicilian coinage. A palm branch or grain stalk curves along the right side of the field, a motif associated with Carthaginian military coinage. In the lower exergual area, a Phoenician inscription appears as a legend identifying the issuing authority of Entella under Campanian or Punic administration. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Entella was a Sicel town in the interior of Sicily that fell under Campanian mercenary control in the late fifth century BC — soldiers who had been hired by Dionysios I of Syracuse and then simply refused to leave. This coin was struck by those Campanian occupiers, who maintained a degree of civic identity distinct from their Syracusan patrons. The Jenkins sequence places this piece within a closely studied die-linked group, and the HGC attribution reflects how recently this series was properly systematized; earlier scholarship had misassigned much of it.
