| Obverse description | Celticized wreath design divided by a central vertical stalk with lateral branches, rendered in stylized relief typical of Late Iron Age British coinage. A recessed tablet occupies the lower field bearing the inscription CAMVL, an abbreviated reference to Camulodunum (modern Colchester), the royal mint centre of Cunobeline. The overall composition reflects the abstract, non-figurative obverse tradition of Trinovantian quarter staters, with decorative pellet and arc motifs framing the central device. |

| Reverse description | Two celticized horses rendered in profile facing left, depicted in the fluid, abstracted artistic style characteristic of British Late Iron Age coinage. A branch or floral spray appears above the horses in the upper field. In the lower field, a six-spoked wheel symbol is prominently placed alongside the abbreviated legend CVNO, identifying the issuer as Cunobeline. The composition combines zoomorphic and symbolic motifs in a dynamic arrangement consistent with the Trinovantian T series. |
