Beschrijving voorzijde Stylised facing head rendered in the insular Celtic tradition, with large circular eyes depicted as raised annulets with central pellets, a broad nose, and a schematic mouth. The hair radiates outward from the crown in bold sweeping relief lines, framing the visage in a characteristic Late Iron Age decorative manner. The field to the right is occupied by a vertical row of three pellets. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with a patina of green corrosion consistent with prolonged burial.

Beschrijving keerzijde A stylised lion passant to the left, rendered in the abstract Celtic idiom with exaggerated musculature and a curvilinear body. The tail curves upward over the haunches in a pronounced arc, and the limbs are depicted in dynamic striding posture. An annulet with central pellet appears above the animal's back, and further pellets and curvilinear ornaments fill the field. The design derives ultimately from Classical prototypes but is thoroughly reinterpreted in the native British artistic vocabulary.
