| Additional information |
Luca — ancient Lucca in northern Etruria — struck this denomination during a period when the region's monetary conventions were still in flux, borrowing heavily from Greek colonial weight standards while asserting a distinctly local identity. The 10-asses valuation places it within an Etruscan bronze-referenced reckoning system that had no direct equivalent in Rome's early coinage structure. These issues are rare enough that the handful of major collections holding examples — Florence, the ANS — account for a significant portion of the known population.
