|Carthage|, |Carthaginians| |in| |Italy,| |Second| |Punic| |War,| |215| |-| |205| |B.C.|, Head of Tanit / horse head types were likely struck at many different mints in the Punic realm. The style of this particular type, which was struck in Italy during the Second Punic War, is very atypical. Robinson suggested Locri as the possible mint, noting similarity between the style of Tanit on this type and Persephone on Locri bronzes.
