Reverse description Two tunny fish (Thunnus thynnus) depicted in profile swimming to the right, arranged one above the other in the field, reflecting the principal commercial resource of the Sexitanian coast. A crescent moon symbol appears to the left between the two fish, and a star or solar disc symbol appears to the right, both serving as Punic religious emblems. A Neo-Punic legend is disposed above and below the fish, reading in translation 'by the citizens of Sexi.' The overall composition is typical of the civic bronze coinage of Hispania Ulterior during the 2nd to 1st centuries BC.
