| Aanvullende informatie |
Capua's decision to strike its own coinage after defecting to Hannibal following the Roman disaster at Cannae in 216 BC was a direct assertion of political independence from Rome. The city operated its mint freely until 211 BC, when Roman forces retook Capua after a brutal siege and permanently abolished its civic institutions — including the right to coin. These bronzes represent the entire window of that autonomy.
The quincunx denomination, marked with five pellets indicating five-twelfths of an as, was uncommon across the broader Campanian bronze series and sees limited representation even among Capuan issues specifically.
