| Obverse description | Bearded male head facing right, identified as Nethuns (the Etruscan sea deity equivalent to Neptune), wearing a ketos headdress in the form of a sea-monster. The portrait is rendered in a robust archaic Etruscan style with pronounced facial features. The ethnic abbreviation appears as a legend below or around the bust. The overall relief is irregular, consistent with the hand-hammered production technique characteristic of Etruscan bronze coinage of this period. |
