| Obverse description | Right-facing head of Tinia (the Etruscan equivalent of Jupiter), rendered in archaic Etruscan style with fine parallel-line engraving depicting the hair swept back in a bound fillet or wreath. The face is bearded, with strong, well-defined features typical of Populonian coinage of the late 4th to early 3rd century BC. The numeral V, denoting the denomination of five asses, appears in the lower field before the chin. The portrait is set within a plain, unadorned field on an irregularly shaped flan characteristic of early hammered Etruscan silver coinage. |
