| Beschrijving keerzijde | A winged thunderbolt depicted centrally in the field, flanked by two horizontal lines above and below, serving as the principal type emblematic of Jovian authority. The thunderbolt is rendered with outstretched wings and a central shaft, consistent with standard Carteia bronze coinage of the late Republican period. The Latin legend CES CAR, referencing the civic magistrates or the colony of Carteia (Colonia Latina Carteia), is distributed across the field. The overall execution is typical of the locally produced hammered coinage of this Baetican mint. |

Carteia, on the Bay of Gibraltar, holds a specific distinction in Roman colonial history: it was the first Roman colony established outside Italy, founded in 171 BC to legitimize the mixed-born children of Roman soldiers and Iberian women. The coins it produced occupy an unusual space — neither fully Roman in administrative character nor purely Iberian — reflecting a community that had to negotiate its own civic identity from the outset.
The semis denomination here places this piece within Carteia's later bronze output, when the colony's mint was serving a local economy increasingly integrated into Baetica's broader commercial networks ahead of the Social War disruptions.
