| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing head of Metus (Gorgoneion or apotropaic facing head), rendered in archaic style with broad, flat features; the visage displays characteristic early Etruscan artistic conventions including prominent eyes and stylized hair or serpentine locks radiating around the face. The head occupies the majority of the flan, set against a plain, unadorned field. No legend or inscription accompanies the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Populonia, the only Etruscan city to mint coins directly from its own coastal ore sources, produced this series when most of its neighbors still relied on trade-weight bronze. The amphora type is conventionally linked to Populonia's role in the wine and metal trade along the Tyrrhenian coast, though the precise monetary relationship between the asses denominations in this silver series remains debated — the city later abandoned silver entirely in favor of cast bronze.
