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.
BES, a Phoenician-Punic deity, was the protector of households and sleep. His image is always depicted facing, bearded and with his tongue out, wearing a crown finished off with a plume. It is wearing a short tunic, with a mallet in his right hand and a snake in his left.

Interesting fact

The Ebusus Hemidrachm coin has a unique design, featuring a mythical creature known as the Ebusus, which is a half-human, half-bull creature that is said to have been worshipped by the ancient Iberians. The coin's design is based on an ancient Iberian relief that was discovered in the 19th century.
