The silver didrachms of Campania represent one of the most artistically distinguished and historically fascinating chapters in the broader Magna Graecia coinage tradition, produced by the Greek colonial cities of the fertile region north of the Bay of Naples during a period when the complex interplay of Greek, Oscan, Samnite, and Roman cultural and political influences was producing a uniquely rich and varied numismatic environment. This Campania-issued AR Didrachm has a Choice Very Fine grade from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), with a 4/5 strike grade. Now, Campania Neapolis AR Didrachm Coins are available online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
This Campania Neapolis AR Didrachm Coin comes with a Choice Very Fine grade and a quality 4/5 strike grade. Coins with this strike grade showcase well-struck, crisp detail in the original design. Coins with a 3/5 surface grade remain in good overall visual condition, with modest signs of handling from wear and tear, as well as possible toning.
In the obverse design of the Campanian AR Didrachm Coin, the design element captures the right-profile bust of the goddess known as Artemis, the guardian of the hunt. For the reverse of Campania Neapolis AR Didrachms, the design presents a man-headed bull, a type shared with other Campanian cities and reflecting the complex cultural synthesis of Greek and indigenous Italic traditions that characterized the region; the figure depicted with a bold naturalistic energy.
The didrachms struck at Neapolis, the Greek city that would eventually give its name to modern Naples, between approximately 330 and 270 BC were produced during a period of enormous historical consequence for the city and the entire Campanian region, encompassing the Samnite Wars, the increasing pressure of Roman expansion southward, and the city’s ultimately successful navigation of the complex political transition from independent Greek polis to allied city within the growing Roman sphere of influence.
