Comment
Under the name 'Numismatic Jewels', in 2008 a new series of collector coins begins in which unique pieces of Hispanic numismatics will be reproduced, and which will continue over the next few years. This year, the issue is dedicated to Phoenician and Iberian coinages: Hemidrachm from Ebusus, Gadir Light Drachm and As from Clounioq.Melqart (also Melkarth or Melicarthus) was the tutelary god of the Phoenician city-state of Tyre and a major deity in the Phoenician and Punic pantheons. The tuna is the deity's symbol and also bears witness to the colony's fishing and salting activities.
Interesting fact
The Gadir Light Drachm coin has a unique design, featuring a stylized image of a dolphin and a crescent moon on its obverse side, which is inspired by the mythology of the ancient city of Gadir, now known as Cadiz, in southwestern Spain.
