| Obverse description | Bare male head facing right, rendered in archaic Etruscan style with finely detailed hair arranged in beaded locks or ringlets framing the face. The numeral 'I' appears in the field behind the head, denoting the denomination of 1 As. The portrait is executed with characteristic boldness typical of Populonian coinage, displaying a strong profile with defined facial features. The flan is small and irregular, consistent with the hammered production methods of early Italian coinage. |
