Reverse description A fisherman seated on a rocky outcrop, facing right, depicted in a naturalistic pose evoking the maritime economy and fishing heritage of the coastal colony of Carteia. The abbreviated legend D D appears in the field, referencing the civic authority by which the coinage was sanctioned. The design is rendered in a summary, provincial style consistent with Augustan-era municipal bronze coinage of Hispania Baetica. The flan surface shows characteristic dark green patination and some porosity from ancient circulation and burial.
