| Beschrijving voorzijde | A four-spoked wheel rendered in low relief, centrally positioned within a plain circular border. The hub is depicted as a raised boss at the center, with four equidistant spokes radiating outward to a continuous rim. The design is bold and schematic, consistent with the archaic, cast aes grave tradition of Etruscan bronze coinage. The field is unadorned, with no legend or inscription. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The attribution of this issue remains genuinely contested. Most scholars assign it to a mint somewhere in Etruria during the final decades before Roman monetary dominance absorbed the region, but no single production center has been confirmed. The sextans denomination places it within a heavy aes grave tradition that was already becoming obsolete as Rome's lighter cast series gained regional traction — making these late Etruscan bronzes something of a rearguard monetary gesture.
Haeberlin's foundational typological work remains the baseline reference, with subsequent SNG Firenze cataloging adding little resolution to the mint question.
