| Beschrijving voorzijde | A boar's head rendered in bold relief facing right, depicted in a naturalistic yet archaic style characteristic of Central Italian aes grave coinage. Four pellets, denoting the triens denomination, are arranged symmetrically in the field surrounding the central device. The casting surface retains a coarse, granular texture consistent with the sand-casting techniques employed during the third to second century BC. |

The heavy cast bronzes of uncertain Central Italian origin remain among the most contested attributions in Republican numismatics. The combination of ICC #281 and HN Italy #362 places this piece within a cluster of issues whose civic origins have never been conclusively resolved — Luceria, Venusia, and several other colonial foundations have all been proposed and disputed in turn. At 101 grams, this is a piece produced before the systematic weight reductions that followed Rome's monetary crises of the Second Punic War.
