Obverse description Central sunburst motif with four prominent raised rays radiating outward from a central boss, dividing the flat flan into four equal quadrants. The design is rendered in low relief consistent with the cast aes grave tradition, with the rays extending nearly to the coin's edge. The surface exhibits the characteristic rough, granular texture of sand-cast bronze production. No legend or inscription is present. The flan is broad and irregular in outline, typical of early Etruscan aes grave coinage.
