| Beschrijving voorzijde | A large scallop shell rendered in high relief occupies the central field, its ribs radiating outward from the base in a naturalistic manner. The shell is flanked on each side by a group of three pellets arranged vertically, serving as decorative border elements. The design is set within an irregular, slightly raised border typical of hammered Iberian bronze coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lauro was an Iberian mint whose precise location remains disputed — most scholars place it somewhere in the territory of the Edetani, possibly near modern Valencia, though the identification is not settled. These fractional bronzes circulated during a period when Rome was consolidating control over Hispania Citerior following the Celtiberian Wars, and indigenous mints like Lauro continued striking their own coinage well into the late second century BC, operating within a monetary environment that was neither fully Roman nor fully pre-Roman.
The ACIP classification revised earlier CNH attributions for several Lauro fractions, tightening the chronology based on hoard evidence from the region.
