| Beschrijving voorzijde | Head of Hercules facing right, wearing the Nemean lion's skin as a headdress, the scalp draped over the crown of the head with the lion's muzzle and open jaws visible above the brow. The facial features are rendered in a bold, archaic Italic style characteristic of central Italian aes grave coinage, with flowing locks of hair visible beneath the pelt. The field is plain and uninscribed. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
These heavy cast bronzes — the aes grave issues of pre-Roman central Italy — were produced before the Roman monetary system fully absorbed the region's local traditions. At over 300 grams, this piece dates to a period when the as was still theoretically tied to the Roman libral standard, though by the mid-third century that standard was already being eroded by the financial pressures of the First Punic War. The issuing city remains unattributed with certainty; Haeberlin's classification acknowledges the ambiguity without resolving it.
