| Reversbeschreibung | A trident with upward-pointing tines occupies the central field, flanked symmetrically by two dolphins curving inward toward the shaft, their bodies arching to follow the circular flan. The composition is a classic maritime device associated with Nethuns and Etruscan coastal communities. The design is contained within the roughly circular flan, the imagery rendered in low relief with simple but clear lines. No legend or inscription appears on the reverse. |

Vetulonia was among the Etruscan cities that Rome permitted to strike bronze coinage during the Second Punic War, likely as a practical measure to address the chronic small-change shortage that followed Cannae and the disruptions to Roman minting in 216–215 BC. The city had been politically subordinate to Rome for generations by this point, making its autonomous coinage a striking administrative concession — one Rome extended to several Italian allies under the pressures of Hannibal's Italian campaign.
The Series II attribution distinguishes this issue from the earlier, heavier Etruscan weight standard pieces, reflecting the Roman reduction of the as that was accelerating through precisely this period.
