Beschrijving voorzijde A downward-pointing club occupies the central field, rendered in low relief characteristic of cast aes grave coinage. A single pellet, serving as the value mark for one uncia, is positioned to the right of the club. The flan is thick and irregular, typical of early Central Italian cast bronze production.

Beschrijving keerzijde A five-pointed star (pentagram) is depicted in bold relief at the centre of the flan, with each point extending toward the coin's edge. A single pellet, denoting the uncia denomination, is placed at the centre of the pentagram. The design is characteristic of the aes grave series attributed to uncertain Central Italian mints of the third to second century BC.

Aanvullende informatie

The attribution "uncertain city of Central Italy" reflects a genuine scholarly impasse — cast bronze libral and sub-libral series from this region remain difficult to assign with confidence because several communities were producing aes grave simultaneously, often using overlapping iconographic conventions and without inscriptions to anchor them. Haeberlin's foundational work sorted many of these by weight standard and fabric, but the groupings have been revised repeatedly since. This piece falls into that contested middle ground where the references agree on what it is, but not quite on who made it.
