Triens

正面描述	Helmeted head of Athena facing right, depicted in fine archaic Greek style. The goddess wears a crested Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, with the cheekpieces raised, revealing flowing curly hair cascading behind the neck. The facial features are rendered with confident, well-modelled relief typical of South Italian bronze coinage. The field is plain, with no additional symbols or inscription.

附加信息	Petelia, a Bruttian town of Oscan origin, held out against Hannibal longer than almost any other southern Italian community during the Second Punic War — a siege famously noted by Livy, who records the population reduced to eating leather and grass before finally capitulating around 215 BC. The town's loyalty to Rome was later rewarded, and its right to strike bronze coinage reflects the municipal autonomy extended to allied communities in the aftermath of the war. The triens denomination, as a quarter-as, carried four pellets as its value mark — a convention already antiquated by the time Petelia's issues were waning toward the Social War.
