This is a survey of numismatic research on Punic coinage in Italy conducted in the twenty years. The Carthaginian series in Sicily, in the islands of the Strait of Sicily, in Sardinia and the Italian Peninsula date from the end of the 5th century B.C. to 211 B.C. They begin with the coins of Phoenician tradition minted by Motya, Panormos ans Solus and end with the series that circulated during Hannibal’s campaing in Italy. This review has made it possible to reexamine topics that are still open to investigation, including, in particular, the identification of Italian and island mints in relation to the monetary policy of the Carthaginian motherland.
