Coins with the almost identical Athena/Cock design were struck by several cities in the Northern Campania and Southern Latium regions (Aquinum, Caiatia, Cales, Suessa Aurunca, Teanum Sidicinum, Telesia). Some coins of this type from Cales were overstruck on Neapolitan coins, which in turn can be dated to 'after 269 BC'.
