Sicily was annexed by the Roman Republic in the late 3rd century BC, following intense conflicts in which mercenaries played a key role. During the Second Punic War, their recruitment was essential in defending cities against Rome. Syracuse, the last city to fall, was betrayed by a group of Hispanic mercenaries led by Moericus, who secretly negotiated with Consul Marcus Claudius Marcellus to facilitate the entry of Roman troops.
As a reward, Rome granted them control of Morgantina (Murgentia), in the island’s interior, where they received land and the authority to mint bronze coins for local transactions. These issues, known as the Hispanorum series, include the first written reference to Hispania and its population. Their significance lies in this historical uniqueness rather than in their artistic quality. VF. Est...500,00.
