| Beschrijving voorzijde | A six-spoked wheel occupies the entire field, its hub rendered as a raised central pellet. A single pellet mark appears between each pair of adjacent spokes, serving as the value indicator for one uncia. The spokes taper outward toward a plain rim, and the overall fabric is characteristic of irregular cast or hammered Etruscan bronze coinage. The design is bold and schematic, with no legend or inscription present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The wheel symbol on Etruscan bronze coinage of this period has never been fully explained — attribution to specific mints remains contested, and the issuing authority behind this series is genuinely unknown. What is clear is that the chronology places production during the Second Punic War, when Carthaginian forces were operating in northern Italy and Etruscan cities faced intense pressure to align politically with either Rome or Hannibal. Several Etruscan states hedged, some defected. Coinage of this region from these decades reflects fragmented authority rather than any unified monetary policy.
