Sicily, Leontini. Alexandria Diobol

Sicily, Leontini; c. 475-455 BC, Diobol, 1.24g. Cf. Boehringer, Leontinoi-pl. 10-11, 16 and 44. Obv: Forepart of roaring lion l. with protruding tongue. Rx: [ΛE - ON] Barley grain. Apparently a new fractional denomination for Leontini (if our attribution is correct), and unrecorded with lion forepart facing left not right, though the left-facing type does appear on later fractions from Leontini, Boehringer pl. 12, 58-59..
