| Obverse description | Janiform head of the god Janus depicted in high relief, with two bearded, facing busts conjoined back-to-back at the center of the flan. Each face displays archaic stylized features characteristic of the Roman Republican sextantal standard, with pronounced brow ridges and flowing beards rendered in a somewhat schematic manner. A raised pellet or mark appears at the apex between the two heads. The coin is struck on a broad, irregular flan with a beaded border visible around the periphery. |

| Reverse description | A large open laurel or olive wreath occupies the central field, rendered in a stylized manner with elongated leaves arranged symmetrically in a circular composition. The denomination mark and the legend ROMA appear within or below the wreath, following standard Republican As typology. A beaded border frames the design around the edge of the irregular flan. The overall relief is somewhat flat, consistent with the heavy cast-influenced hammered bronze coinage of this period. |
