Obverse description Facing right, a laureate and draped bust of a male deity — likely Apollo or a youthful hero — rendered in archaic Etruscan style with flowing, striated hair falling in waves to the shoulder. The portrait is executed in bold relief with strong facial features characteristic of Populonian bronze coinage. The legend 'XXX' appears in the field, denoting the denomination of 30 centesimae. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hammered cast bronze coinage of this series.
