Beschrijving keerzijde Full-length frontal figure of Bes standing with arms extended, grasping a hammer in one hand and a serpent in the other, closely mirroring the obverse type in composition and style. The squat, apotropaic figure is rendered in a bold, schematic manner typical of late Ebusitan bronze coinage. The bilingual legend INS AVG and the Punic toponym 'YBSHM appear in the field, affirming the island's civic identity under Augustus.

Aanvullende informatie

Ebusus — modern Ibiza — was unusual among Balearic communities in retaining its own civic coinage well into the Julio-Claudian period, long after most western provincial mints had been absorbed into the imperial system or simply shut down. The Punic-derived inscription on this semis reflects the island's Phoenician colonial heritage, which persisted in local epigraphy centuries after Carthage had ceased to exist as a political entity. Rome tolerated this arrangement; Ebusus posed no threat, and its mint served a genuinely local circulation need.

The RPC I 481 group is tied to the reign of Tiberius by the AVG title without the DIVVS AVGVSTVS attribution used posthumously.
