| Obverse description | A knucklebone (astragalos) depicted in relief at center field, rendered in a naturalistic style typical of Central Italian cast bronze coinage of the third to second century BC. The surface shows characteristic casting texture with no legend or inscription present. The design occupies the majority of the flan, which is irregular in outline as is common for aes grave and related cast issues. |

| Reverse description | A crista (helmet crest) depicted in bold relief at center field, rendered schematically in the manner typical of Central Italian cast bronze issues of the third to second century BC. The crest motif, likely referencing military symbolism, is the sole design element, with no surrounding legend or inscription. The flan surface retains its characteristic cast finish with visible porosity consistent with the aes grave tradition. |
