Beschrijving keerzijde Mercury seated left upon a rocky outcrop, his body turned slightly toward the viewer, depicted in the conventional divine guise of the god of commerce and communication. The figure holds attributes associated with Mercury, set within an open field framed by a continuous Latin legend running around the entire periphery of the flan. The reverse legend records the names and titles of the issuing colonial magistrates, underscoring the civic authority behind this emission.

Aanvullende informatie

This piece was struck in 21 AD under the authority of Quintus Junius Blaesus, the proconsul of Africa Proconsularis — and uncle of Sejanus, the notorious praetorian prefect who was then consolidating power in Rome. Blaesus's tenure in Africa was distinguished by a protracted campaign against the Tacfarinas-led Musulamii revolt, for which Tiberius awarded him an imperatorial salutation, one of the last granted to a man outside the imperial family.

Colonial bronze issues of this period from Africa Proconsularis are among the more complex products of provincial minting, dependent entirely on the proconsul's explicit permission — hence the PERMISSV formula in the legend.
