KINGS OF NUMIDIA. Massinissa or Micipsa, 203-148 BC or 148-118 BC. AE (Bronze, 27 mm, 10.69 g, 12 h). Laureate head of Massinissa or Micipsa to left. Rev. Horse galloping left; below, pellet. MAA 18a. Mazard 53. SNG Copenhagen 505. Large flan fault, otherwise, very fine.

The pronounced metal flaws show that problems arose during the production of the flan. A large air bubble probably formed during casting, leaving a cavity whose traces are still visible on the struck coin
