Obverse description Cast tin ingot of elongated, straight clamp form with three upward-projecting lug ears: two at the terminal ends and one centrally positioned along the upper edge. The body presents a cylindrical, slightly flattened profile with rounded shoulders, the surface exhibiting characteristic casting roughness, pitting, and natural oxidation patina consistent with aged tin alloy. The lower face is concave and irregular, reflecting the open-mould casting technique employed. No inscriptions, devices, or decorative elements are present; the form itself served as the primary indicator of value.
