Nico added on 31/1/2015:
"For this fractional two variants are known: crescent and (reversedF) (digamma). The meaning of those symbols is unknown, they appear also on heavier cast denominations for these types, among other monograms or symbols ( reversedN , Judean_gimel_1 , A); old theories about reversedF as abbreviation for Vetulonia or Judean_gimel_1 for Populonia are are no longer accepted by scholars.
The oncia is the only denomination minted for the series, all the other heavier fractionals are cast (quadrante, semisse, asse, quincusse).
The mint has not yet been identified, according to F. Catalli the archaeological data suggest the inland area of northern Etruria, between Chiana Valley and Elsa Valley, probably Arezzo, or Cortona or Chiusi."
