| Beschrijving keerzijde | A dolphin depicted in profile swimming to the right, rendered in a bold, stylized manner characteristic of Iberian civic bronze coinage; the body is arched with a prominent dorsal fin and a bifurcated tail flukes clearly visible. Two small Iberian script signs appear above the dolphin in the upper field. The composition fills the flan, with the dolphin serving as the principal type denoting the maritime trading character of the Cessetani community at Tarraco. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cessetani occupied the coastal territory around modern Tarragona — Kesse in ancient sources — and began striking their own bronze coinage under the broad tolerances Rome extended to Iberian allied peoples during the second century BC. This fractional issue belongs to a monetary system that never fully harmonized with Roman denominations, reflecting instead older Iberian counting traditions that Roman administrators found convenient to leave alone rather than disrupt.
