Beschrijving keerzijde A prominent crescent moon with horns pointing upward occupies the central field, with a star or pellet above set within the concave face of the crescent. The legend L ΑΡ ΚΑΝΑΤΑ surrounds the device, indicating the civic regnal year (year 101 of the Pompeian era) and the mint city of Canatha. The type is a well-known symbol of the city of Canatha in the Hauran region, employed on its autonomous and semi-autonomous bronze issues.

Aanvullende informatie

Canatha, one of the cities of the Decapolis, issued bronze coinage under Caligula during a period when the region sat under the administrative grip of the client kingdom of Nabataea before its eventual absorption into the Roman province of Arabia in 106 AD. Municipal issues of this kind were not struck by Rome's authority but by the city itself, functioning as a local economic instrument within a patchwork of semi-autonomous urban minting traditions common to the Syrian interior.

The city reckoned dates by its own civic era beginning in 31 BC, placing this issue firmly within year 69 of that count.
