| Obverse description | Facing bust of the bearded Etruscan deity Tinia (the equivalent of Zeus/Jupiter), rendered in three-quarter view turned slightly to the right, surrounded by decorative ornaments. The value mark XX appears above the effigy in the upper field, denoting the denomination of 20 Asses. The portraiture displays the archaic Etruscan artistic style characteristic of Populonian coinage, with bold, stylized facial features. The field around the bust is populated by subsidiary decorative elements framing the central design. |
