背面描述	Two pellets serving as the value mark for the sextans (one-sixth of the as), accompanied by a cornucopia, all set within a plain circular incuse field. The pellets are centrally positioned and clearly defined, while the cornucopia appears to the side in low relief. The design is characteristic of the aes grave coinage attributed to the Umbrian city of Iguvium.

附加信息	Iguvium — modern Gubbio, in Umbria — was among the handful of central Italian communities that produced aes grave coinage during the middle Republic period, likely under pressure from Rome's expanding monetary network rather than any indigenous tradition of struck bronze. The "without raised disc" designation distinguishes this variety from related issues where the pellet mark appears in relief; the flat treatment may reflect a die-cutter working outside the main production workshop or a deliberate local adaptation. Iguvium is better known to numismatists through the Iguvine Tablets — seven bronze inscriptions in the Umbrian language, found in the town in 1444 — than through its coinage.
