| Obverse description | Stylised male head facing right, rendered in the schematic Celtic artistic tradition, with pronounced facial features including a large eye and defined jawline. A winged petasus or caduceus motif appears above the head, identifying the figure as Mercury. The abbreviated inscription VER appears in the field before the face, referencing the mint of Verlamion. The entire design is set within a roughly circular flan with characteristic irregular edges of a hammered bronze issue. |
