| 裏面の説明 | A bridled horse standing to the right, shown in three-quarter profile with the foreleg raised, rendered in a bold and naturalistic style typical of Punic coinage. The horse is depicted with a plaited or braided mane, alert ears, and muscular body, conveying power and vitality. A palm tree is visible to the left of the horse, a symbol strongly associated with Carthage and its Phoenician heritage. The scene is set on a ground line, and the field is otherwise unadorned with no legend present. |

These electrum staters were almost certainly struck to pay mercenary troops — Libyan, Iberian, and Campanian soldiers whose loyalty depended entirely on reliable coin payment. Carthage had no tradition of civic coinage before the late fifth century; this series emerged directly from military necessity, likely produced at a Sicilian mint during the prolonged conflicts with Syracuse. The specific alloy, a naturally occurring electrum refined to roughly 72% gold, was sourced from North African and possibly Sardinian deposits under Carthaginian control.
