Informazioni aggiuntive	Abdera on the Iberian coast — modern Adra in Andalusia — was a Phoenician foundation, and its late bronze coinage reflects a community still operating within a distinctly Semitic cultural framework long after most of coastal Iberia had shifted toward Roman administrative norms. The town's Punic identity persisted stubbornly into the 1st century BC, visible in its coin legends rendered in Neo-Punic script well into the period when neighboring mints had already adopted Latin. The half-unit denomination places this piece within a local fractional system calibrated to regional exchange, not Roman monetary integration. Abdera never struck in silver during this period.
