| Obverse description | Head of Turms (the Etruscan equivalent of Hermes/Mercury) facing left, wearing a winged petasos; the facial features are rendered in a bold, archaic Etruscan style with a pronounced profile. The petasos is clearly delineated with small wings at the crown, characteristic of the deity's iconography. The design is set within a plain, irregularly shaped flan with no surrounding legend or border. |

| Reverse description | Uniface; the reverse is entirely blank, presenting an unworked, slightly convex flan surface with no design, inscription, or incuse. The surface shows the typical rough texture of a hammered Etruscan blank, with scattered marks and irregularities resulting from the striking process. |
