| Beschrijving keerzijde | A horse advancing to the right, raising one foreleg in a pawing or prancing stance, with loose reins depicted floating above the animal's back. The type follows the standard equine motif common to Iberian bronze coinage of the Cessetani region. Beneath the horse, an abbreviated Iberian legend in Levantine semi-syllabic script identifies the mint of Masonsa. The design is executed in a somewhat schematic style consistent with local die-cutting conventions of the late second century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cessetani were an Iberian people settled in the region around modern Tarragona — Kese in ancient sources, later Romanized as Tarraco. Their bronze coinage, including fractional pieces like this, was struck during the period of deepening Roman administrative consolidation following the Second Punic War. The denomination structure mimics Roman influence while the epigraphy remains distinctly Iberian, a pattern common among Hispanian mints navigating dual cultural pressures.
Masonsa is a secondary mint within the Cessetani attribution, referenced in ACIP as a dependent or regional issue rather than a principal civic coinage.
