The hemidrachms not only show an interesting renewal of the coin types, but they are also a new denomination in the monetary history of the mint," and were possibly the earliest appearance of the denomination in Western Sicily (Westermark, p. 111-112). The hemidrachm issue with the ketos (sea-monster), as here, is unique to the silver coinage of Akragas; Westermark connects it to the Skylla tetradrachms, and places it as the last issue of the denomination (known from only 5 obverse and reverse dies).

About Very Fine. Extremely Rare, known in very few specimens. Ex Artemide 57E, 8 January 2022, lot 167. The didrachms minted during this period may have been produced to pay the mercenaries that regularly formed the armies of the ancient Sicilian cities. It was an epoch of constant conflicts between Segesta and Selinus, before the cycle of alliances that ultimately destroyed the latter and firmly established Punic power in Western Sicily. Therefore, a sudden surge is observed of numismatic activity in North-West Sicily. Three cities, Segesta, Motya and Panormos minted considerable quantities of same types didrachms: a hunting dog on the obverse and a nymph's head on the reverse. The coins of the three cities bear the hand of the same engravers and although sometimes used the same types of coins, they all followed their own specific regime. The presence of hybrid coins combining dies from these cities suggests a central mint, probably in Segesta. While Jenkins and Hurter propose Panormos, Rutter argues convincingly for Segesta, which, considering the historical circumstances, seems the most plausible location.
