Description

Description
Roman Tessera or spintria-erotic Tin token
Material (originally struck in Brass)
Spintriae are highly popular and expensive collectibles, but what purpose did they actually serve in Antiquity?
They are known as "spintriae." A single spintria is minted from bronze or brass beginning in early first century CE, each coin depicts a sexual act on one face and a Roman numeral – ranging from I to XVI – on the other.
It's unclear what purpose these coins served. One popular theory holds that they were used in place of official Roman currency in brothels, where they could be used to pay prostitutes in exchange for sexual services.
An extension of the sex-token theory maintains that the sex act depicted on each coin corresponds to the price listed on the opposite face, a system that would also have helped dissolve language barriers.
It
is possible that these coins served as token entrance ticket, partly in the theatre partly in the thermal baths
Or gaming token ?
The purpose of producing these very rare copper/brass/ erotic tokens in ancient times is still questionable.
