| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped head of a city nymph facing right, her hair elaborately arranged in wavy locks secured by a diadem or band, with loose curls falling about the neck and ears in the refined Campanian style. A small figure of Artemis or Nike, holding a torch, appears behind the neck at lower left, serving as a subsidiary symbol. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, with the portrait executed in high relief characteristic of the finest Neapolitan coinage. The inscription XAPI appears partially in the field, likely referencing the magistrate or an abbreviated epithet. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Neapolis — modern Naples — was a Greek colonial foundation that maintained its Hellenic monetary traditions long after surrounding Campanian cities had capitulated to Roman influence. These staters were struck during a period of acute regional pressure: the Samnite Wars had reshaped the Italian interior, and Roman power was consolidating rapidly. The city negotiated a treaty with Rome around 326 BC that preserved substantial autonomy, and its mint continued operating under that arrangement for decades.
HN Italy 579 is among the later emissions of this type, produced as the city's independent coinage was approaching its final phase before Roman monetary integration effectively ended local silver production.
