| Obverse description | A chimeric creature facing right, depicted with the forepart of a lion — featuring a detailed maned head with open jaws — set upon a sinuous serpentine body that coils elegantly to the left, filling the field. The design is executed in archaic Etruscan style with bold, confident engraving. The entire motif is enclosed within a beaded border. The coin is uniface, with no reverse type or inscription. |
