| Reverse description | Cerberus, the three-headed dog of the underworld, depicted walking to the right within a linear border frame. The creature's multiple heads are rendered distinctly, and the figure is shown in profile with naturalistic musculature typical of early Italic coinage. The composition is contained within a rectangular incuse or raised border. The field is largely plain, with no additional legend or subsidiary devices. The engraving reflects the archaic style common to Etruscan and early Latin monetary production of the late fourth to early third century BC. |
