| Description de l’avers |
Bust of a female deity facing right, wearing a crested Corinthian-style helmet; the head is rendered in bold, archaic relief characteristic of Central Italian aes grave coinage. The facial features are summarily modeled, with the helmet visor and cheek-guard clearly delineated. The design is contained within a plain incuse field typical of cast bronze issues of this period. No legend or inscription is present. |

| Description du revers |
Bare male head facing right, likely representing a deity or heroic figure, wearing a plain diadem or fillet bound around the hair. The head is rendered in high, rounded relief consistent with the cast technique employed for Central Italian aes grave coinage of the third to second century BC. The facial features are boldly if summarily executed, with the hair rendered in schematic locks above the diadem. No legend or inscription is present in the flat, unadorned field. |

Heavy cast bronze of this weight places it squarely within the earliest phase of Roman-influenced aes grave production in Central Italy, before the progressive weight reductions of the Second Punic War systematically drove the as down from the Etrusco-Campanian standard. The issuing city remains unidentified with certainty — Haeberlin's attribution has been contested without resolution, and the piece continues to circulate through scholarship under a deliberately vague regional tag.
