| 背面描述 | Eagle standing facing, with wings spread open and head turned to the right. The bird is depicted in a heraldic posture with both wings raised, rendered with fine detail in the feathering of the body, wings, and talons. The eagle stands on a low horizontal ground line, occupying the centre of the deeply incuse reverse field. No legend or inscription is present, consistent with the anepigraphic type catalogued for this issue. The reverse die is set within a circular incuse depression typical of hammered obol coinage from this Latin colony. |

| 附加信息 |
Alba Fucens was a Latin colony planted by Rome in 303 BC deep in Aequian territory, sitting astride the Via Valeria at roughly 1000 meters elevation in the central Apennines. Its coinage is exceptionally brief — this obol belongs to a small autonomous issue struck in the years immediately following the Latin War settlement, before Rome systematically curtailed allied minting rights. The colony likely struck these pieces to facilitate local market exchange in a region where Roman coinage had not yet fully penetrated.
The series is rare by any measure, with surviving specimens spread thinly across a handful of major collections including the ANS.
