| 裏面の説明 | Reverse displays a six-spoked wheel motif, a standard denominational symbol employed on Central Italian aes grave trientes of this period, rendered in bold, deeply incised lines radiating from a central hub to the rim. Four pellets, denoting the value of four unciae (one triens, or one-third of an as), would conventionally accompany this type, though surface wear renders them difficult to distinguish on this specimen. The design is boldly cast in the aes grave tradition, with the wheel filling most of the flan. No legend or inscription is present. |

The triens, representing one-third of the as, was among the most practically useful denominations in the pre-reform Romano-Campanian bronze series. This piece belongs to a cluster of heavy aes grave issues attributed to an uncertain central Italian mint — the city remains unidentified despite over a century of scholarship, with Haeberlin, Crawford, and others unable to reach consensus. The dot system marking this fraction was common across multiple issuing authorities, which is precisely why attribution remains contested.
At over 108 grams, this falls within the heavier end of the libral standard before the gradual weight reductions that accelerated during the First and Second Punic Wars stripped these bronzes down dramatically.
