Beschrijving keerzijde A three-spoked wheel occupies the upper portion of the reverse, its spokes radiating from a central hub against a plain field. Below the wheel, a wolf strides energetically to the right within a open semicircular arc, rendered in a lively if somewhat schematic Iberian style. The wolf motif is a distinctive emblem associated with the Ilergetan mint of Iltirta, and the composition as a whole is enclosed within the curved border of the arc. An Iberian script legend is associated with this type, though it may not be fully visible on all specimens.

Aanvullende informatie

Iltirta, identified with modern Lleida in Catalonia, was the principal oppidum of the Ilergetes — the same people whose chieftain Indibilis allied with Hannibal against Rome in 218 BC, then switched sides, then revolted again, dying in battle against Scipio Africanus in 205 BC. These fractional silver pieces were struck squarely within that violent window of shifting allegiances, almost certainly to meet the practical demands of paying troops or provisioning during a period when both Carthaginian and Roman armies moved through Ilergete territory.

The denomination itself — a three-quarter obol equivalent — reflects Iberian adoption of Greek fractional weight standards, most likely transmitted through Emporion (Ampurias) on the northeastern coast.
