Aanvullende informatie

Caesarea — modern Cherchell in Algeria — served as the capital of Mauretania under the client kingdom established by Rome after the death of Cleopatra Selene's son Ptolemy in 40 AD. This coin's broad date range reflects the joint association of Augustus and Tiberius on the civic bronze coinage of the city, likely struck under the reign of Juba II, who maintained an ostentatiously Romanized court while governing a kingdom that nominally retained its own identity. Juba's death in roughly 23 AD and his son Ptolemy's subsequent rule complicate precise dating of individual pieces within this series.
