Jenkins & Lewis, Group IVd, 224 (same dies), MAA 9.

We observe that this very fine specimen of Carthaginian electrum staters has unfortunately been cleaned, with multiple hairlines on the reverse around the horse. The observe, however, has kept a very fine aspect, including the superb engraving of the divinity, whose we should appreciate the perfectly mastered details of her hair.
