| Beschrijving keerzijde | A mounted horseman advances to the right, depicted in a dynamic pose astride a galloping horse, while leading a second horse alongside. A small symbol or control mark appears in the left field. Below the horses, an Iberian inscription in the Levantine semi-syllabic script serves as a mint or ethnic identifier. The composition reflects the characteristic Iberian jinete (horseman) type, widely adopted across northeastern Hispanian coinage during the second century BC. |

The Cessetani were an Iberian people occupying the coastal territory around modern Tarragona — Kesse in ancient sources — and their adoption of the quinarius format in the early second century BC was a direct response to Roman monetary penetration following the Second Punic War. Roman forces had used the Iberian peninsula as a primary theater of operations, and indigenous communities under increasing Roman administrative pressure began minting in Roman denominational systems to facilitate taxation and troop payment, not out of cultural alignment.
The ACIP 1125 attribution places this piece within a well-documented Cessetani sequence, though the precise chronology between 195 and 170 BC remains debated among Iberian numismatists.
