1/2 As Light type, value to the left

Tuder — modern Todi in Umbria — was among the Latin and allied communities that struck autonomous bronze coinage during the Second Punic War period, when Hannibal's campaigns disrupted Roman monetary supply chains severely enough that regional mints filled the gap. This half-as belongs to the light series, reflecting the progressive reduction in bronze weight standards that accelerated through the late third century as war demands strained metal supplies across the peninsula.

Tuder's coinage is rare in any condition. The city struck in limited volume, and Umbrian find contexts suggest these pieces circulated within a tight geographic radius rather than dispersing broadly through trade.
