背面描述	A wheel or spoke pattern occupies the central field, a characteristic reverse device of Etruscan uncia coinage from Vetulonia. The design consists of a central hub with radiating spokes, rendered in low relief on an irregular flan. The surface exhibits heavy green patination and encrustation consistent with long burial. The composition is set within a plain or lightly bordered field, with no legible inscription or additional devices visible.

附加信息	Vetulonia was among the Etruscan cities that retained enough autonomy in the early second century BC to strike its own bronze coinage, even as Roman political authority over the region tightened following the Social War pressures of the preceding decades. The Series III issues represent the final phase of independent Vetulonian minting before the city's coinage effectively ceased — not through conquest, but through gradual absorption into Roman commercial networks that made local bronze redundant. The Vecchi-V gap in the reference line is worth noting: this piece falls outside Italo Vecchi's numbered sequence, placing it among the less systematically catalogued Etruscan bronzes.
