| Obverse description | Bare male head facing right, rendered in archaic Etruscan style with naturalistic curling hair drawn close to the skull. The facial features are modeled in low relief with a rounded jaw and subtly defined eye socket. The portrait is centrally placed within the irregularly shaped flan, with no surrounding legend or mark of value. The style reflects the mature phase of Populonian silver coinage, characterized by its compact and expressive treatment of the human effigy. |
