Descrizione del rovescio	The reverse repeats the obverse type: a six-spoked wheel with a central raised pellet hub, and a single pellet positioned between each pair of spokes. The spokes radiate evenly to the outer rim with no additional devices or legends in the field. The surface shows the characteristic roughness and irregular flan typical of Etruscan cast bronze issues of this period. No inscription or mintmark is present.

Informazioni aggiuntive	The wheel symbol on Etruscan bronze coinage of this period has never been fully explained — attribution to specific mints remains contested, and the issuing authority behind this series is genuinely unknown. What is clear is that the chronology places production during the Second Punic War, when Carthaginian forces were operating in northern Italy and Etruscan cities faced intense pressure to align politically with either Rome or Hannibal. Several Etruscan states hedged, some defected. Coinage of this region from these decades reflects fragmented authority rather than any unified monetary policy.
