Tetras

Aversbeschreibung	Janiform head depicted in facing position at center, presenting two bearded male visages conjoined back-to-back in archaic Sicilian style. The dual heads are rendered with bold, slightly stylized features characteristic of fifth- to fourth-century BC Siculo-Punic bronze coinage. The broad faces display pronounced brows, wide-set eyes, and short beards, with the twin profiles occupying the full field of the flan. No legend or inscription is present on the obverse.

Zusätzliche Informationen	Kefra was a small Sikeliot mint in ancient Sicily, operating in the shadow of larger neighbors like Syracuse and Akragas. The tetras — worth three onkiai, one-quarter of a litra — was a workhorse denomination in the Sicilian bronze system, and issues from minor mints like Kefra are typically short-lived, tied directly to local civic ambitions that rarely outlasted a generation of political stability. CNS 7 places this type within the Corpus Nummorum Siculorum, the standard reference for Sicilian coinage, though Kefra's output remains poorly documented compared to the island's major centers.
