Additional information

Hyria was one of the older Oscan settlements in Campania, and its coinage chronology intersects directly with the period of Samnite expansion that would eventually absorb much of the region. These nomoi are attributed to a window when the city retained enough autonomy to strike independently — a situation that would not last. The HN Italy 539 series is sparsely documented, and individual specimens frequently drive attribution debates given how closely Hyrian types shadow neighboring Neapolitan issues.
