Screening of Iberian Coinage in the 2th‐1th BCE Period Using the Voltammetry of Immobilized Particles

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: The voltammetry of immobilized particles (VIMP) was applied for grouping a series of 86 Iberian coins nominally minted in the cities of Iltirta, Cástulo and Obulco in the 2th‐1th BCE period for which there are no chronological data. Using characteristic signatures for the reduction of cuprite, tenorite and lead corrosion products in the patina of the coins, voltammetric grouping of coins was proposed. Voltammetric data were found to be consistent with textural and compositional properties of the surface and subsurface of selected coins using FIB‐FESEM‐EDX. The obtained data confirmed a clear separation between the productions of Iltirta on one side, and those of Cástulo and Obulco on the other side, indicating the possibility to establish a rough chronology for these productions.
