Historical background
ANTIPOLIS - ANTIBES
(1st century BC)
Founded by the Phocaeans, a Massaliote colony, Antibes would have received the "jus latinum" after the capture of its metropolis in 49 BC, for having sided with Caesar against Pompey. The coinage is late and was struck when Lépide was governor of Narbonnaise.
