| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped female head facing right, hair arranged in a bun, rendered in archaic Etruscan style. The abbreviated ethnic legend VETL appears in the field behind the head, identifying the issuing city of Vetulonia. The portrait is modelled in low relief, characteristic of Central Italian bronze coinage of the late 3rd century BC. The flan is irregular, as typical of cast aes grave issues of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vetulonia was among the Etruscan cities that issued bronze coinage in the late third century BC, a period when Rome's catastrophic defeat at Lake Trasimene in 217 BC forced a broad reassessment of monetary systems across the Italian peninsula. Whether Vetulonian issues like this one circulated in direct response to that disruption or reflected pre-existing local minting tradition remains debated. The kerykeia series is distinguished within Vecchi's classification by its caduceus device, used as a series marker rather than a design element.
