Tetradrachm Uncertain Punic mint, Lilybaion or Entella

The attribution to either Lilybaion or Entella reflects a longstanding editorial problem in Punic Sicilian numismatics — the two mints operated under similar Carthaginian administrative control during the late fourth century, used overlapping die cutters, and produced coins for the same military payroll economy. Jenkins's grouping acknowledges the uncertainty rather than forcing a false precision. Carthage was aggressively funding mercenary operations across Sicily at this moment, and tetradrachms of this weight standard were the primary instrument for paying Greek and Campanian soldiers who would accept nothing less.
