Beschrijving keerzijde A single upright ear of wheat, depicted with spreading lateral grains rendered in a stylized, fan-like manner, occupying the central field. The semis value mark S appears to the right of the stalk, serving as the denomination indicator. The design is characteristic of the agricultural symbolism common to Hispano-Roman municipal bronzes, emphasizing the fertility and economic identity of the issuing community.

Aanvullende informatie

Ugia was a small Iberian settlement in the Baetis valley — modern Andalusia — whose exact location remains disputed among scholars, with candidates including sites near present-day Utrera. Its bronze coinage, including this semis, belongs to the broader phenomenon of autonomous municipal issues that proliferated across Hispania Ulterior during the late Republican period, as Rome permitted local communities to mint fractional bronze for regional circulation without exercising direct control over the designs.

The ACIP and CNH references point to a single known type, suggesting extremely limited emission.
