Sicily, Panormos (as Ziz) AR Litra. Circa 400-380 BC. Youthful male head left / Bearded, man-headed bull walking to left, head facing; Punic legend below. Jenkins, Punic, p. 75, 12 var. (swastika on obverse, legend above bull); CNP 395; HGC 2, 1050 corr. (litra) var. (same). 0.54g, 10mm, 3h.

Good Very Fine, original 'find' patina. In excellent condition for the type.

From the collection of a Scientist;
Ex Dix Noonan Webb, 5 October 2009, lot 5404.

Anomalously missing from both Jenkins and HGC, as the type was first published in BMC Sicily in 1876 (no.'s 27 & 28), numerous examples of the type can be found in CoinArchives, though this piece can be counted among the best preserved.
