| Reverse description | A trident depicted upright at center, with its three tines pointing upward and the shaft extending downward to a stylized base rendered with decorative curved flukes. The implement is shown in a schematic, flat rendering typical of Populonian silver coinage of this series. The field is plain and unadorned, and no legend is present. The reverse is notably flatter and less detailed than the obverse, consistent with hammered Etruscan coinage of this period. |
