Comments

Ten typ został najwyraźniej wybity na planszecie 20 As, która została przycięta do tego samego rozmiaru co moneta 5 As.

Istnieje wiele kontrowersji dotyczących datowania monet populońskich, w związku z czym zakres dat może się różnić w zależności od źródła.

Druga seria Gorgoneion została wybita przy użyciu czwartego standardu srebra Populonii, który jest równy trzeciemu standardowi srebra, z wyjątkiem tego, że waga wszystkich nominałów jest o połowę mniejsza.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

This type was seemingly struck on a 20 As planchet that was cut-down to be the same size as a 5 As piece.

There has been much controversy on dating Populonian coins, and as such, the date ranges my vary per source.

The second Gorgoneion series was struck using Populonia's fourth silver standard, which is equal to the third silver standard except with the weights of all denomination being halved.
