Osservazioni sulle emissioni di argento non frazionarie di Panormos e a legenda ṣyṣ nel V secolo a. C.

The main objective of this study is to make observations about the modes of production of the 5th century BC non-fractional silver coinage with the Greek legend Panormos (and variants) and with Punic legend ṣyṣ. The reconstruction of the dies sequences published by G. Kenneth Jenkins in 1971 and its recent updates will be considered above all. Instead, the identification of the issuing authority and the mint of the coins with legend ṣyṣ through the origin and the meaning of the term ṣyṣ and through the analysis of the bilingual emissions ṣyṣ -Panormos takes on a secondary importance. In this regard, only the suggestions that emerge from the examination of the succession of dies are collected
