| 表面の説明 | Central device depicting a facing head of Medusa or Gorgoneion in low relief, rendered in archaic style with broad features and a wide, open mouth. Four dots arranged to the right of the central motif serve as the value mark for the triens, denoting four unciae (one-third of the as). The field surrounding the device is plain and unlettered, consistent with the aes grave coinage tradition of Central Italy. The flan is thick and irregular, characteristic of cast bronze coinage of the third century BC. |

The triens struck by this unattributed Central Italian mint sits in one of the more contested corners of early Roman-period bronze coinage. The "dots to the right" variety — a positional die marker rather than a value indicator — has been used by scholars including Haeberlin and Sydenham to group these pieces by workshop without resolving the issuing authority. The attribution to a generic "uncertain city" is itself a scholarly compromise; candidates have included Luceria and several smaller Samnite-adjacent communities whose minting activity remains poorly documented in the literary record.
