Abstract: Let $X$ be a finite-dimensional Banach space; we introduce and investigate a natural generalization of the concepts of Hadwiger number $H(X)$ and strict Hadwiger number $H^{\prime }(X)$. More precisely, we define the antipodal Hadwiger number $H_{a}lpha(X)$ as the largest cardinality of a subset $Ssubseteq{S}_X$, such that $forallxeqyinS,,,existsfin{B}_{X^{\ast }}$ with [1 le f(x)-f(y) ,,, extrm{and} ,,, f(y) le f(z) le f(x) ,,, extrm{for} ,,, z in S.] The strict antipodal Hadwiger number $H{\text{'}}_{a}lpha(X)$ is defined analogously. We prove that $H{\text{'}}_{a}lpha(X)=4$ for every Minkowski plane and estimate (or in some cases compute) the numbers $H_{a}lpha(X)$ and $H{\text{'}}_{a}lpha(X)$, where $X=el{l}_p^n,1<ple+infty$ and $nge2$. We also show that the number $H{\text{'}}_{a}lpha(X)$ grows exponentially in $dimX$.
