About Extremely Fine.

From the F. Cruse Collection.

Not identifiable with a known mint in Sicily, the Kainon issues have traditionally been attributed to Alaisa. However, the different fabric of several issues suggests that they were struck at more than one mint, perhaps by mercenaries in the employ of Dione of Leontini.
