| Obverse description | Facing left, the youthful head of Turms (the Etruscan equivalent of Hermes/Mercury) rendered in fine archaic style, wearing a winged petasos. The figure is surrounded by the retrograde Etruscan legend reading POE-P-L, denoting the mint city of Populonia. The portrait exhibits the characteristic smooth modelling and stylized features associated with early Etruscan coinage, with the wing of the petasos prominently detailed in relief. |
