| Aanvullende informatie |
Temesa was a Bruttian coastal settlement whose coinage history is exceptionally brief — the city was destroyed, probably by the Italic Oenotrians, sometime in the fifth century BC, leaving only a handful of coin types attributable to it. HN Italy lists just one entry for the city's silver issues, which tells you almost everything about how short the mint's operational window was.
The BMC Greek citation here anchors this as one of the type specimens. Fewer than a dozen examples are recorded across public collections.
