Description

Greek Italy. Greek Italy, uncertain mint. Capua(?). AE 17 mm. Late 90s-early 80s BC. Head of Dionysos right, wearing ivy wreath. / Panther standing right, holding thyrsos. HN Italy 2672; SNG Cop. 342 (Capua?). AE. 4.24 g. 17.00 mm. R. Rare and interesting coin. VF/About VF. This issue has hitherto been tentatively attributed to Capua (BMC and SNG Cop.), but Garrucci (p. 59f) claimed that the coins appeared to be found chiefly in the neighbourhood of Orvieto (Bolsena). Robinson (NC 1964, p. 42) envisaged a Second Punic War context.
