ILDURO (Mataró, Barcelona). As. (Ae. 14,19g / 30mm). 120-20 BC Anv: Diademic male head to the right, behind the ear. Rev: Rider with spear to the right, below Iberian legend: ILDuRO. (FAB-1438). XF. Contemporary patina. Nice specimen, scarce in this quality.

At the end of the first third of the second century BC, the copper emissions stand out and have the particularity of marking the obverse with an ear. On the obverse and depending on whether you look to the right or left, the male head, we can establish a specific dating (we know, for example, that the figure looking left belongs to a third issue dated at the end of the 2nd century BC). The reverse sides are, however, always coincident: spear rider.
