Beschrijving voorzijde A scallop shell depicted in high relief dominates the obverse field, rendered in a somewhat crude but characteristic Central Italian aes grave style. The shell is shown from above with radiating ribs extending from a central boss, occupying the majority of the flan. The casting is irregular, consistent with the heavy bronze coinage of the Roman Republican period. Two pellets, the mark of value for the sextans (one-sixth of the as), are typically associated with this denomination though flan condition obscures fine detail.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a serpent rendered in profile, its sinuous body curving prominently across the field in a manner characteristic of Central Italian bronze coinage of the third to second century BC. A single pellet appears to the right of the serpent, serving as part of the value mark for the sextans denomination. The design is boldly cast in high relief, with the reptile's body clearly articulated despite the rough, irregular flan surface typical of aes grave production. The overall treatment reflects the archaic artistic conventions of pre-Roman and early Roman Central Italian minting traditions.
