Hello
I kindly ask for assistance in identifying the coin shown in the attached images.
Below are the details I’ve been able to gather.
Apart from the physical characteristics and the identification of the obverse and reverse, the rest is based on assumptions:
Type: Punic bronze coin of medium module
Obverse: Head of Tanit
Reverse: Horse protome, possibly with an unclear symbol beneath the muzzle
Weight: 5.43 grams
Diameter: 1.9 cm
Thickness: 2 mm
Period: 3rd century BCE, likely between 230–218 BCE, possibly minted before the Second Punic War
Features: Beaded border visible around both the head of Tanit and the horse protome
Tentative attribution: Belonging to the so-called “first Punic series” or “horse series,” likely issued prior to the Second Punic War
Thank you
