Three raised pellets are disposed to the left of the vessel and three to the right, serving as value indicators denoting the semis denomination. The design is executed in the plain, archaic relief typical of cast Etruscan aes grave. No legend or inscription is present.

Aanvullende informatie

Cast — not struck — during a period when central Italian monetary systems were still coalescing around the Roman aes grave standard, this piece belongs to a poorly understood series attributed to Etruscan production on the basis of typology and findspot distribution rather than any surviving mint documentation. The issuing authority remains genuinely unresolved among specialists; Catalli and Haeberlin assign the series to Etruria broadly, but no single city has been confirmed.

At this weight, the piece conforms to the heavy Etruscan libral standard before Roman influence drove progressive reduction across the peninsula.
