| 表面の説明 | Janiform head composed of two confronted male busts facing outward in opposite directions, rendered in archaic Italic style typical of the Second Punic War period. The legend MEL appears to the right of the heads, serving as the abbreviated ethnic or magistrate's name identifying the issuing authority. The double portrait is boldly struck in high relief, with both faces displaying individual physiognomic detail including a pronounced brow and strong jawline. The field is plain, with no additional ornament or border visible. |

| 裏面の説明 | An African elephant strides to the left in a naturalistic rendering, its characteristic domed head, large ear, and curved trunk clearly delineated. Four pellets arranged in a horizontal row occupy the exergual area beneath the elephant, serving as the value mark denoting the triens (one-third of an as). The composition is contained within a plain field, and the flan displays the irregular, somewhat rough surface characteristic of cast bronze coinage of the period. The elephant type is closely associated with Hannibal's Punic forces and reflects the military context of the coin's issuance during the Second Punic War. |
