| Reverse description | A prancing or leaping dolphin depicted in right profile, its body arched dynamically with an upward-curving tail and prominent dorsal fin rendered in stylised relief, consistent with the maritime iconography emblematic of the coastal colony of Carteia on the Bay of Gibraltar. Below the dolphin, wave-like ground lines suggest the sea. The abbreviated magistrates' legend IIII VIR EX D D, referring to the quattuorviri who issued the coin by decree of the local council (ex decreto decurionum), is distributed around the field, though partially worn. |
