| Additional information |
Henna, the hilltop city in central Sicily, became a Roman municipium in the aftermath of the Slave Wars — the town had been seized by Eunus at the start of the First Sicilian Slave War in 135 BC, making it the symbolic heart of that revolt. This small civic bronze, issued under locally elected duoviri, belongs to the municipium's brief autonomous coinage phase before Augustan administrative consolidation ended such local issues across the island.
