Populonia, Etruria, ItalyComments
While the design is similar to didrachms from Vulci and cast coinage from Inland Etruria, they are on different weight standards, and so are probably unconnected.

The Archaic wheel series was struck using Populonia's third silver standard, with all being set at unrelated weights to the proceeding two standard.
