Obverse description Bare male head facing right, rendered in a robust Ibero-Roman style with schematic facial features. A crescent symbol is positioned to the left of the head in the field. The abbreviation VR appears in the field, likely representing the Iberian city name. The flan is thick and irregular, consistent with heavy bronze coinage of the Iberian Peninsula during the mid-2nd century BC.

Reverse description Triskeles motif composed of three human legs radiating from a central facing head or gorgoneion, a symbol widely associated with Sicilian and Ibero-Roman civic coinage of the period. The three bent legs are arranged symmetrically around the central face, which is depicted frontally with schematic features. The legend FLORENTIA arcs around the design in the field. The overall composition is boldly struck on a broad, irregular bronze flan.
