Obverse description A globular jug (oenochoe) depicted in high relief at center, with a single pellet (value mark for one uncia) positioned to the left. The jug is rendered in a schematic yet bold style characteristic of Central Italian aes grave coinage, with a rounded body, narrow neck, and handle visible in profile. The field is plain and unlettered.

Reverse description A pedum (shepherd's crook or lituus-like staff) oriented facing left, depicted in relief with its curved head to the upper left and straight shaft extending downward. A single pellet (value mark) is placed in the field to the right of the staff, confirming the denomination as one uncia. The reverse field is otherwise plain, consistent with the austere typology of Central Italian aes grave issues.
