| Reverse description | Incuse type depicting a coiled serpent rendered in intaglio, the body spiralling inward to the center of a deeply recessed circular field. The serpent's head is visible at the center of the coil, and the scales of the body are suggested by stippled texture. The entire design is set within a wide, plain incuse depression bordered by a raised rim, characteristic of the Populonian incuse bronze series. |
