Obverse description Highly stylized Celtic male head facing left, rendered in the La Tène artistic tradition; the hair is depicted by a series of parallel lines interspersed with interconnected globules or pellets, creating a decorative, abstract effect. At the base of the neck, a boar in reverse orientation serves as a subsidiary emblem, a characteristic motif of the Aulerci Eburovices coinage. The facial features are schematically rendered, with the overall composition emphasizing decorative abstraction over naturalistic portraiture. The field is otherwise plain.
