| Additional information |
Saguntum's coinage in silver drachms was struck under Roman oversight following the city's restoration after the Second Punic War — Rome had made Saguntum's destruction by Hannibal in 219 BC the formal pretext for declaring war on Carthage. The surviving Edetani community was permitted to mint, but within Roman-aligned parameters, making these issues a product of calculated political rehabilitation rather than independent civic ambition.
ACIP 1968 falls within the later phase of the series, when fabric and weight had already drifted noticeably from earlier emissions.
