Burnett 112 in "The Enna Hoard" in SNR 62; Sjöqvist, "Numismatic Notes from Morgantina: 1. The SIKELIWTAN Coinage," in ANS MN 9, pg. 55, 3; Antikenmuseum Basel 415 The very rare Sikeliotan coinage was struck at Morgantina when it seemed that a native revolt would succeed in driving the Romans from the island. The revolt failed, Morgantina was sacked, and only a scattering of the coinage survived. With permission of Freeman & Sear - Manhattan Sale IV, Lot 16, Jan. 2013.
