Unit Spearhead

The Cessetani occupied the coastal territory around modern Tarragona — Kesse in ancient sources — and began striking bronze coinage as Roman administrative pressure reshaped the Iberian economy following the Second Punic War. This issue belongs to a period when indigenous communities were navigating Roman fiscal demands while maintaining their own monetary systems, a balancing act that would collapse entirely within a generation or two.

The "Unit Spearhead" denomination places it within a weight-based hierarchy specific to Iberian bronze series, where the spearhead mark functioned as a value indicator rather than a design element.
