Commentary


Pour ce type, M. Crawford a relevé une estimation de dix coins de droit et neuf coins de revers. M. Crawford signale d’autre part que le poids moyen est de 7,21 g pour cinquante huit exemplaires pesés. Ce type est l’un des plus rares du monnayage romain d’origine grecque. Sur notre exemplaire le nombre de rayons sur l’étoile est de quinze au lieu de seize. D’autre part N. K. Rutter place sa fabrication plutôt dans les années 260 avant J.-C. au moment où débute la première guerre Punique.

Historical background


ROMAN REPUBLIC - ANONYMOUS

(235-230 BC)

After the occupation of Sardinia and Corsica in 238 AC by the Romans, the Carthaginians seized Spain, led by Hamilcar, the father of H annibal. Hamilcar died in battle in 228 AC and was succeeded by his son-in-law, Hasdrubal. A treaty was signed the same year between the Romans and the Carthaginians. He made the Ebro the border of the Carthaginian possessions and guaranteed the neutrality of Saguntum, an ally of Rome..
