Unit of the Carthaginian Empire (struck in Sardinia) |
||
Description |
English: An incomplete copper alloy unit of Carthage, struck in Sardinia, c. 300-264 BC; Horse head right; below, (dot); to right, three dots. SNG Copenhagen pl. 6, no. 155.
For a similar Carthaginian coin found in Lincolnshire, see LIN-C0E9D7. For Carthaginian coins found in Kent, see D. Holman, Britannia XXXVI (2005) p. 5, fig. 2, no. 14, and p. 11. Carthaginian and Numidian coins are occasionally found in Britain, dating from the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. A Numidian piece was found in excavations at Carn Brea in Cornwall and two smaller Carthaginian coins were in the temple assemblage from Castle Combe / North Wraxall Wiltshire (Report by Sam Moorhead in the Wiltshire Heritage Museum). Most recently, several similar coins have been recorded in Kent by David Holman (Britannia XXXVI, 2005, p. 5, fig. 2, no. 14, and p. 11ff). Traditionally, it has been assumed that these coins reflect the tin trade between South West Britain and the Mediterranean. |
