| 裏面の説明 | A tall, spreading date palm tree rendered frontally, its fronds fanning outward in elegant, naturalistic detail filling the coin's field. Two clusters of dates hang prominently on either side of the trunk amid the lower fronds, a symbol of Phoenician identity and the fertility of North Africa. Below the palm, flanking the base of the trunk, the Phoenician inscription is divided into two groups, reading 'QRT HDŠT' (meaning 'New City', i.e. Carthage). The design is bold and deeply struck, characteristic of early Siculo-Punic coinage. |

These coins were struck during one of the most violent episodes in Sicilian history — the Carthaginian offensive launched after Hannibal Mago sacked Selinus and Himera in 409 BC, followed by Himilco's systematic destruction of Akragas, Gela, and Kamarina between 406 and 405 BC. The Siculo-Punic mint producing this type was almost certainly a mobile military operation, generating silver coinage to pay mercenary troops rather than to serve any settled civic economy. The specific attribution remains contested precisely because no permanent mint facility has been archaeologically identified.
