The Carthaginians in Italy and North Africa, Tetradrachm, Entella (?), c. 300-289 BC ; AR (g 16,90; mm 24; h 4); Testa di Herakles r., wearing lion skin, Rv. Head of horse r.; palm tree to r., below, Punic ‘MHMHNT. Jenkins, Punic 317 (O101/R261); HGC 2, 293; SNG Copenhagen 89 (same dies); SNG Lloyd 1642 (same rev. die); Basel 564; de Luynes 1449 (same dies)
Light old cabinet tone, fine style, high relief and well centered for this issue, virtually as struck, fdc.

Quite often these specimens are very worn out so the types are poorly struck up, so that coins show up only as a flat spot lacking any detail. The horse's eye and the head of Herakles on this specimen are fully struck up and display virtually no wear, making it one of the most desirable pieces of its type we have seen.
