| Beschrijving voorzijde | Nude youth on horseback advancing to right, crowning his horse with a wreath held in his right hand while controlling the reins with his left; the magistrate's name ΞΕΝ-ΕΑΣ (Xeneas) appears in the field below the horse, and the initial EΥ is placed to the right, identifying a co-magistrate. The equestrian scene is rendered in the vigorous Tarentine style characteristic of the late Nomos series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tarentum's nomos coinage collapsed in both weight and political confidence after the city submitted to Rome in 272 BC, ending the Pyrrhic adventure that had consumed a generation. The magistrate names Xeneas and Eu— (the second name survives only in truncated form across the Vlasto specimens) place this issue in the early decades of Roman suzerainty, when the mint continued operating but under circumstances that made full civic independence a polite fiction. By around 240 BC the nomos series itself was effectively finished, replaced by lighter fractions better suited to a city no longer running its own foreign policy.
