| Beschrijving voorzijde | Heavily patinated bronze surface of irregular, roughly circular form, exhibiting the characteristic cast texture of early Central Italian aes grave production. A single pellet, serving as the value mark denoting one uncia, is discernible in low relief within the field, set against a plain, unadorned surface. The flan is thick and lenticular in section, consistent with the Sickle series of the third to second century BC. No figural motif, legend, or inscription is present; the design is confined to the value mark alone. The coin displays extensive green patination and surface encrustation typical of long burial. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Sickle series" bronzes are among the more poorly understood issues of central Italian coinage from this period — the issuing authority remains unattributed despite decades of scholarly debate, with candidates ranging from Umbrian communities to inland Latin settlements. The sickle symbol itself has been read as agricultural, as a cult reference, and as a civic badge, none convincingly settled.
ICC#267 places this piece within a typological grouping rather than a confirmed mint sequence.
