| Obverse description | Stylized human head facing right, rendered in the abstracted Celtic artistic tradition. The facial features are schematically depicted, with the eye, nose, and chin reduced to bold, curvilinear forms characteristic of late Armorican coinage. The flan is irregular and the relief is low, consistent with a struck billon quarter-stater of this period. |

| Reverse description | A human-headed horse advancing to the right, its mane composed of a row of raised dots arranged in a decorative linear pattern. A small disembodied human head appears above the horse's back, and a star or wheel motif is visible between the animal's legs. The design elements are characteristic of Armorican Celtic coinage and are rendered in a highly stylized, abstract manner typical of the late Gaulish series. |
