| Obverse description | Head of Turms (the Etruscan equivalent of Mercury/Hermes) facing right, wearing a broad-brimmed petasus helmet rendered in fine relief. The facial features are depicted in the Etruscan artistic tradition, with a naturalistic profile typical of the mid-Republican period. The numeral 'V' appears in the field, denoting the denomination of 5 Asses. The flan is irregular, as characteristic of hammered Etruscan silver coinage of this series. |
