Cr  18/6 Cast Æ Uncia
Rome, c. 270 b.c.e.
o: Barley-grain; pellet to l.
r: Barley-grain; pellet to r.
25mm, 26.65gm, 6h
   The "Apollo/Apollo" group, not quite the earliest Roman bronze.  The "uncia" or ounce being 1/12th of the Roman pound.  This specimen, though having some corrosion, comes rather close to a pound of 320 grams.  It also shows the shape of the cast rather distinctly.  If we had more photo options, I would show the (ancient) sprue mark and bevel of the cast more clearly.
