Aanvullende informatie

The wheel/anchor series of heavy cast bronze belongs to a cluster of Etruscan issues whose mint attribution remains genuinely unresolved — Vetulonia, Populonia, and several inland centers have all been proposed without consensus. What is clear is that these pieces were struck during a period of rapid monetary disruption, as the Second Punic War's approach was already straining central Italian bronze supplies and pushing mints toward lighter standards. The five-spoke wheel distinguishes this dies from the more common four-spoke varieties catalogued by Haeberlin, making it a minority type within an already scarce series.
