| Obverse description | Bare male head depicted in left profile, rendered in low relief consistent with the archaic Italian cast bronze tradition. The facial features, including brow, nose, and chin, are summarily modeled, reflecting the rudimentary yet expressive style characteristic of Central Italian aes grave coinage of the 3rd century BC. No legend or inscription appears in the field. |

| Reverse description | A stylized vine leaf, likely representing a grape or wine leaf, occupies the central field, flanked by three globular pellets disposed around it serving as the value mark for the quadrans denomination. The design is rendered in low cast relief with minimal detail, consistent with the aes grave coinage tradition of uncertain Central Italian mints. No inscription or legend is present. |
