| Beschrijving voorzijde | A four-spoked wheel motif occupying the central field, rendered in a bold, archaic Etruscan style with slightly irregular spoke placement characteristic of early Italian cast and hammered bronze coinage. The rim is raised and somewhat irregular in outline, consistent with the crude flan preparation typical of this series. No legend or inscription is present. Three pellets, serving as value marks indicating the quadrans denomination, are arranged in the field. The overall fabric is coarse, with a patinated surface reflecting the coin's considerable antiquity. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The wheel-marked bronze issues of uncertain Etruscan origin belong to a poorly understood phase of central Italian monetary production that preceded full Roman absorption of the region. Attribution has shifted repeatedly across the major corpora — Haeberlin, Catalli, and the HN Italy series each place these pieces within slightly different mint groupings, and no consensus has settled on a single issuing city. The weight of this example, well above the standard for a quadrans fraction, suggests it was cast under a heavy libral or sub-libral standard that had not yet been rationalized into the Roman system.
