Comments

Moneta ta jest zwykle wymieniana jako pochodząca z niepewnej etruskiej mennicy; jednak umieszczenie Peithesa na podobnie zaprojektowanych monetach wydaje się wskazywać na jej lokalizację. Chociaż dokładny nominał nie jest znany, wartość wynosi 5 jednostek.

Sambon twierdzi, że monety te zostały wybite około 268 r. p.n.e.; jednak domy aukcyjne i inne źródła podają szerszy zakres. Automatically translated

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

This coin is typically listed as being from an uncertain Etruscan mint; however, the inclusion of Peithesa on similarly designed coins seems to indicate its location. And while the exact denomination is unknown, the value is of 5 Units.

Sambon says these pieces were struck circa 268 BC; however, auction houses and other sources tend to give a broader range.
