| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two horses galloping vigorously to the right, the nearer horse mounted by a rider holding a palm frond aloft in his right hand, depicted in the indigenous Iberian equestrian tradition. The horses are rendered with dynamic energy, their legs fully extended in full gallop. In the exergue below, an Iberian legend in Levantine semi-syllabic script identifies the issuing authority. A linear border frames the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cessetani were an Iberian tribe occupying the coastal territory around modern Tarragona — Kese in ancient sources — and began striking silver coinage under direct Roman pressure following the Cato the Elder's campaign of 195 BC, which systematically crushed Iberian resistance and reorganized the peninsula's tribute systems. These issues were not purely indigenous: Rome encouraged local minting as a practical mechanism for collecting taxes and paying troops without shipping bullion from Italy.
The fabric is distinctly Iberian, struck on flans prepared by a different tradition than Roman workshops of the same period.
