This article presents a case study of three different coin series (RRC 468-RRC 470) minted near contemporaneously in Hispania during the latter stages of the civil war, which present strikingly different representations of foreign peoples and places. While Caesar’s coin series (RRC 468) displays an image of submissive Gallic captives and a military trophy, Cnaeus Pompey Jr’s two series (RRC 469=470) feature personifications of the region and local cities and depicts them working together with their Pompeian counterpart in the pursuit of victory in the area.  The article incorporates hoard evidence to further develop our understanding of how a contemporary viewer might have experienced these contrasting images of foreign peoples and places.  It demonstrates which would have been the more common image in circulation and provides evidence for potential audience targeting with the Pompeian coin series.  In light of recent scrutiny of Pompeian patronage networks in Spain, this hoard evidence for potential audience targeting allows a new interpretation of the Pompeian coin series as targeting a potentially wavering host community to be put forward.

为一个派别铸币:西班牙内战中对外国人和地点的竞争性描述罗马铸币(RRC 468、RRC 469、RRC 470)

本文介绍了内战后期在西班牙几乎同时铸造的三个不同硬币系列 (RRC 468-RRC 470) 的案例研究,它们呈现出截然不同的外国人民和地方的代表。凯撒的硬币系列 (RRC 468) 展示了顺从的高卢俘虏和军事奖杯,而 Cnaeus Pompey Jr 的两个系列 (RRC 469=470) 则描绘了该地区和当地城市的拟人化,并描绘了他们与庞贝在追求地区的胜利。这篇文章结合了囤积的证据,以进一步加深我们对当代观众可能如何体验这些外国人民和地方的对比图像的理解。它展示了哪个是流通中更常见的图像,并为庞贝硬币系列的潜在受众定位提供了证据。鉴于最近对西班牙庞贝赞助网络的审查,这些潜在受众定位的囤积证据允许提出对庞贝硬币系列的新解释,即针对潜在摇摆不定的东道主社区。
