Hello everyone:

I am learning and I do not know if it is correct to post in old posts, but searching among those that have remained in the background, I found this, I do not know if it serves to gb29400, but out of curiosity I hope it will be useful to someone and in the process confirm me if I am in the right thing.

Bruttium  Rhegium - Rhegion (Reggio di Calabria)
Greek

I think this is the type of currency.

BRUTTIUM, Rhegion. Second Punic War. Circa 211-201 BC. Æ Tetrachalkon (16mm, 3.12 g, 1h). Jugate heads of the Dioskouroi right, wearing piloi and laurel wreaths / Asklepios standing left, holding branch and scepter; bird on left arm; IIII (mark of value) to left. HN Italy 2559; SNG ANS 776–83. VF, green patina, a couple edge splits.

And other of Wildwinds:

Rhegion AE18 Quadrantes. 203-89 BC, 2.83 g. Draped, jugate busts of the Dioskuri right, wearing laureate pilei, star above each head / ΡHΓINΩN, Youthful, naked Asklepios (or Apollo) standing left, holding branch, bird and sceptre, IIII before. SNG ANS 778; SNG Cop 1984.
