| Beschrijving keerzijde | A plow depicted in the upper field, symbolizing the agricultural prosperity of the Obulco region; below, a wheat ear oriented to the left, further emphasizing the city's agrarian identity. Between these two emblems, the Iberian legend URKAILTU NESELTUKO appears in two lines rendered in the Meridional Iberian semi-syllabic script, representing the local name of the city and magistrate or civic formula. A mark of value (X) appears to the right. The overall composition is typical of Obulcan civic coinage of the Republican period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Obulco — modern Porcuna in the province of Jaén — was one of the most prolific minting cities in pre-Roman Hispania, producing a coinage that circulated widely across the upper Guadalquivir valley during Rome's consolidation of the peninsula following the Second Punic War. The city retained enough local autonomy under Roman administration to issue its own bronze well into the second century BC, a privilege that reflected both its agricultural wealth and its strategic position along interior trade routes.
The bilingual inscriptions found across the Obulco series — combining Latin and Iberian script — make these bronzes unusually valuable to epigraphers studying the transitional period of Romanization in Baetica.
