| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crab depicted frontally in high relief, with carapace prominently rendered at center, claws extended to either side, and four pairs of legs splayed outward across the flat field. The die-engraving is bold and schematic, characteristic of Punic Sicilian bronze coinage of the period. A Punic legend appears in the field, reading 'gl'. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with a green patina overall. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lopadusa — modern Lampedusa — issued its own bronze coinage despite being little more than a rocky outcrop between Sicily and North Africa, a geographic reality that made it a staging point for both Carthaginian and Roman naval operations. The island's autonomous bronze issues are rare enough that die linkage studies remain incomplete, and the "var." designation in the Morcom reference suggests this piece diverges from the standard type in ways that have not been fully systematized.
