| Aversbeschreibung | Facing left, the laureate head of the goddess Tanit is rendered in Hellenistic style, adorned with a wreath of grain ears encircling her hair. She wears a pendant drop earring and a beaded pearl necklace, with finely modelled facial features characteristic of late Punic coinage. The field is plain, with no legend or inscription. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A horse is depicted standing to right in profile, its head turned back to face left in a characteristic pose seen on Punic coinage of this series. The animal wears a halter around its neck, and its right foreleg is raised. A small pellet appears beneath the raised hoof in the lower field, serving as a control mark. The design is rendered without legend or exergual inscription. |

Struck in the immediate aftermath of the Second Punic War, this issue dates to one of the most catastrophic periods in Carthaginian history. The Battle of Zama in 202 BC ended Hannibal's campaign and forced Carthage to accept Roman terms that included massive indemnity payments — 10,000 talents of silver spread over fifty years. Bronze coinage of this moment reflects a treasury under severe strain, minting in base metal while silver drained westward toward Rome.
MAA 81a places this among the Sicilian or Sardinian military mint productions, though attribution remains contested among specialists.
