| Obverse description | Janiform double head of Culsan, the Etruscan deity associated with transitions and doorways, depicted wearing a broad-brimmed petasos hat. The two facing busts are rendered in low relief in a schematic Etruscan artistic style, with both profiles visible simultaneously on opposing sides of the flan. The casting is irregular, consistent with the heavy Aes grave tradition of central Italic coinage of the late 3rd century BC. |
